Amendments to the Export and Import of Hazardous Waste and Hazardous Recyclable Material Regulations / by Waste Reduction and Management Division, Environment and Climate Change Canada.: En14-245/2016E-PDF

Environment and Climate Change Canada is amending the Export and Import of Hazardous Waste and Hazardous Recyclable Material Regulations, 2005 (EIHWHRMR) to strengthen Canada’s ability to meet its obligations under the Basel Convention on Transboundary Movement of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal (the Basel Convention). The proposed amendments will expand the definitions of hazardous waste and hazardous recyclable material, and will add new conditions for the return of waste or recyclable materials that are refused by an importing or transit country.
