Moderate risk waste is household hazardous waste and similar waste from institutional and commercial sources and include: waste motor oil\, portable fire extinguishers\, propane cylinders\, oil-based paint\, and lead-acid batteries. \nThe objectives of the amendments\, as outlined in the intentions paper and the What we Learned Report\, are to: \n\nBetter support the diversion of moderate risk waste from the municipal waste stream (for example\, by better facilitating the diversion of these wastes from landfills)\nDevelop requirements for storage and transport that are more achievable and practical while remaining protective of human health and the environment\nHarmonize requirements under the Hazardous Waste Regulation with the Recycling Regulation\n\nThe scope of the amendments focused on: \n\nStoring moderate risk waste at Return Collection Facilities (RCFs)\nTransporting these wastes from RCFs to hazardous waste management facilities (e.g.\, processing\, treatment\, or disposal facilities)\, and storing at in-transit consolidation facilities\n\nMore information: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content?id=F4ADCE577120461BA5B599DDDE1336FC
