Q-2, r. 19 - Regulation respecting the landfilling and incineration of residual materials

Section 99 Disposition versions

2012-09-01

99. Combustible residual materials deposited in northern landfills must be burned at least once a week, weather conditions permitting.

Residual materials containing asbestos, and animal carcasses or animal parts must be covered with soil or other residual materials as soon as they are deposited. The words “containing asbestos” have the same meaning as in the fourth paragraph of section 41.

The soil used to cover the residual materials may contain contaminants in a concentration equal to or lower than the limit values set out in Schedule I to the Land Protection and Rehabilitation Regulation (chapter Q-2, r. 37) for volatile organic compounds and in Schedule II to that Regulation for other contaminants. Those limit values do not apply to contaminants that do not originate from human activity.
