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

Section 117 Disposition versions

2020-09-17

117. From May to October, the residual materials deposited in a remote landfill must be covered at the end of each day of use or at least once a week where those materials are burned pursuant to the second paragraph of section 115, with a layer of soil or with a layer of lime, or be covered in another manner that minimizes the release of odours, the spread of fires, the proliferation of animals or insects, and blowing litter.

Residual materials containing asbestos, and animal carcasses or animal parts must be covered with other residual materials as soon as they are deposited. That requirement does not apply if the residual materials deposited in the remote landfill are covered in another manner as provided for in the first paragraph. The words “containing asbestos” have the same meaning as in the fourth paragraph of section 41.

The soil referred to in the first paragraph 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.
