Q-2, r. 49 - Regulation respecting the reclamation of residual materials

Section 21 Disposition versions

2023-02-13

21. The characterization of the residual granular materials must be performed by taking at least 1 sample for every 1,000 m3 or less where

(1)  the residual materials originate from land containing contaminated materials or contaminated soil;

(2)  the residual materials originate from land where one of the following activities has been carried out:

(a)  motor vehicle repair, maintenance or recycling activities;

(b)  treated wood reclamation activities;

(c)  the activities whose sector is listed in Schedule 3 to the Regulation respecting hazardous materials (chapter Q-2, r. 32), except for transportation activities for which the economic activity code is 4591;

(d)  the activities whose category is listed in Schedule III to the Land Protection and Rehabilitation Regulation (chapter Q-2, r. 37).

In all the cases covered by this section, the following must be analyzed:

(1)  the inorganic parameters indicated in Table 1 of Schedule I;

(2)  where the residual granular materials are likely to contain organic contaminants, other than asphalt, due to factors such as the utilization of coatings or resin, the occurrence of spills or the carrying out of industrial activities,

(a)  the level of petroleum hydrocarbons (C10-C50); and

(b)  the organic compounds indicated in Table 2 of Schedule I or, in the case of category 4 granular materials, the organic compounds identified in the characterization of the soil on the land.

21. Where the residual materials originate from land containing contaminated materials or contaminated soil or from land on which motor vehicle repair, maintenance or recycling activities, treated wood reclamation activities or activities indicated in Schedule 3 to the Regulation respecting hazardous materials (chapter Q-2, r. 32) or Schedule III to the Land Protection and Rehabilitation Regulation (chapter Q-2, r. 37) have been carried out, the characterization must be performed by taking at least 1 sample for every 10,000 m3 or less.

Where the residual granular materials consist of sludge from the dimension stone sector, grooving sludge or sediments from ready-mix concrete basins, at least one representative annual sampling must be taken.

In all the cases covered by this section, the following must be analyzed:

(1)  the inorganic parameters indicated in Table 1 of Schedule I;

(2)  where the residual granular materials are likely to contain organic contaminants, other than asphalt, due to factors such as the utilization of coatings or resin, the occurrence of spills or the carrying out of industrial activities,

(a)  the level of petroleum hydrocarbons (C10-C50); and

(b)  the organic compounds indicated in Table 2 of Schedule I.
