New Pre-Treatment Rules for Hazardous Waste

The Land Disposal Restrictions (LDR) Regulation (O. Reg. O. Reg. 461/05) is now law. The LDR regulation

treatment standards. These treatment standards will significantly reduce the harmful components in the
waste, or minimize the ability of the hazardous components from entering the environment once they
have been disposed.
