SCHEDULE I

(s. 12)

AMOUNT EXIGIBLE FOR INDUSTRIAL DISCHARGES INTO WATER AND THE ATMOSPHERE

1. The annual duties provided for in section 12 are composed, in particular, of the total of the amounts calculated for an establishment’s industrial discharges into water and the atmosphere. Those amounts are calculated in the following manner for each of the contaminants in Tables I and II:

n
∑	Tc × Fc × $9.08
c - 1

where

T = tonnage of contaminant discharged during the preceding year of operation of the establishment, in metric tons.

F = weighting factor established by contaminant discharged as provided for in Tables I and II

c = discharged contaminant referred to in Tables I and II

$9.08 = unit rate per metric ton of contaminant discharged per year

2. For the purposes of Table I of section 1 of this Schedule,

(1) contaminants discharged “into system” means any contaminant discharged by an industrial establishment into a sewer system and treated by a municipal wastewater treatment works;

(2) contaminants discharged “outside system” means any contaminant discharged by an industrial establishment outside a sewer system or not treated by a municipal wastewater treatment works.
