Plain-language summary · AI-assisted

Businesses applying for a hazardous waste transport licence in B.C. must now submit a $500 application fee along with their completed Form 2 (Schedule 5). The director will not process the application until both the form and the fee are received. In addition, all current and future transport licence holders must pay a $200 annual licence fee within 30 days of each anniversary of their original licence issue date. Operators who hold or plan to apply for a hazardous waste transport licence should budget for these fees and track their licence anniversary date to avoid missing the annual payment deadline.
