2012-09-01

17. Contaminated soils referred to in the second paragraph of section 9 must be transported in a closed means of containment or in a dump vehicle.

Where contaminated soils are transported in a dump vehicle, an impermeable tarpaulin must,

(1)  if the contaminated soils have a contaminant concentration equal to or in excess of the limit values prescribed in Schedule II to the Land Protection and Rehabilitation Regulation (chapter Q-2, r. 37), cover the top of the dumper entirely so that rain or snow cannot fall in and contaminants cannot escape;

(2)  in the other cases, keep the contaminated soils inside the dumper.

In all cases, where a liquid can leak from the contaminated soils, the means of containment or the dumper must be watertight.
