  • Spreadsheet Model of the Canada-wide (CWS) of Petroleum Hydrocarbons (PHC) in Soil (2008) (PN 1406) Errata - July 2009
    It is possible to turn off the Management Limits at the tier II level in the Spreadsheet Model of the Canada Wide Standard (CWS) for Petroleum Hydrocarbons (PHC) in Soil (2008). This is an error and has been corrected in order to be consistent with the 2008 PHC CWS scientific rationale and user guidance which both state that Management Limits cannot be adjusted or omitted at the tier II level. The posted spreadsheet has been revised to correct this.

     

     



    Environmental Code of Practice for Aboveground and Underground Storage Tank Systems Containing Petroleum and Allied Petroleum Products (PN 1326) May 2009

    Underwriters Laboratories of Canada (ULC) has published the First Edition CAN/ULC-S660-08, Standard for Nonmetallic Underground Piping for Flammable and Combustible Liquids.  This standard replaces, ULC/ORD-C971-2005, Nonmetallic Underground Piping for Flammable and Combustible Liquids, which had itself replaced the following ORDs referenced in Table 1 and Sentence 5.2.1(1) of the Code:

    • ORD-C107.4-1992, “Ducted Flexible Underground Piping Systems”
    • ORD-C107.7-1993, “Glass-Fibre Reinforced Plastic Pipe and Fittings”
    • ORD-C107.14-1992, “Non-Metallic Pipe and Fittings”

    Effective March 19, 2009, Underwriters Laboratories of Canada (ULC) have exited from the testing and certification of secondary containment liners, refer to ULC Certification Bulletin No. 2009-04 for further information. 

    Effective March 31, 2009, Underwriters Laboratories of Canada (ULC) have withdrawn ULC/ORD-C58.9-1997, Secondary Containment Liners for Underground and Aboveground Flammable and Combustible Liquid Tanks, referenced in Table 1 and Sentence 3.9.2(1) of the Code, refer to ULC Certification Bulletin No. 2009-04 for further information.

     

     



    Canadian Soil Quality Guidelines for Uranium 2007 and the associated Scientific Supporting Document (PN 1371) Errata - December 2008
    The ATSDR (1999) definition for becquerel in the Uranium Canadian Soil Quality Guidelines, (page 2) and the Scientific Supporting Document, (page 3) were quoted incorrectly in both documents. The definition has been corrected in both documents to match the glossary definition in ATSDR (1999). The posted document has been revised to correct this.
