The manifest (a 6-sheet non-carbon copy form) tracks the shipment of hazardous waste. The manifest is the movement document that travels with the hazardous waste from the point of generation, through transportation, to being received at an approved facility. It documents the type and the amount of waste, who shipped it (consignor), who transported it, (carrier), who received it (consignee) and how it was handled. Each party is required to complete their section of the manifest, sign, distribute and keep the appropriate copies. The reverse side of the manifest provides instructions on how to complete and distribute the copies. The manifest may be completed by hand (press hard!), typewriter, or printer.
If the shipment originates in British Columbia (BC), then the appropriate BC manifest with a unique Identifier number must be used.
