Extractions: Navigation Hazardous Waste Management Highlights Many households and businesses use hazardous materials in their day to day activities. Many of these activities produce wastes that can injure or even threaten living things. These wastes are called hazardous wastes. Hazardous waste must be handled in special ways to prevent threats to human health and the environment. Paint products, solvents, some batteries, household cleaners and pesticides are typical examples. When disposed of in the municipal landfill or otherwise improperly managed, these materials have the potential of contaminating the ground water our drinking water supply.

Hazardous materials are used at most federal facilities in the Atlantic Region for activities as ordinary as cleaning to highly specialized work with radioactive materials. Most materials are consumed during use. Some hazardous materials, however, may no longer be required, such as laboratory chemicals, some may have reached the end of their lifespan, such as batteries and used oil, and some may have been found to be a health or environmental concern, such as leaded paint and asbestos. These hazardous materials, and sometimes their containers, become waste and must be disposed of safely. Environment Canada has a mandated responsibility to provide advice on hazardous waste disposal to other federal departments and crown agencies. This mandate is set out in The Government Organization Act, Treasury Board Guidelines on Real Property Management, the Fisheries Act and Environment Canada's Toxic Substance Management Policy. However, as soon as the waste leaves the federal property, it is subject to the applicable provincial disposal regulations. These regulations may specify what landfills are licensed to receive particular wastes and what facilities are licensed to handle hazardous wastes.
