           Use of the facility                      Amount of the guarantee

Sorting, except the sorting of green         $100,000 + $100/tonne for the quantity

Green residues sorting or biological 
sorting and treatment where the total 
quantity of residual materials the 
operator is authorized to receive at the 
facility is

- more than 2,000 tonnes without             $15/tonne
exceeding 5,000 tonnes 
- more than 5,000 tonnes without             $75,000 + $20/tonne for the quantity
exceeding 50,000 tonnes                      in excess of 5,000 tonnes
- more than 50,000 tonnes                    $975,000 + $25/tonne for the quantity
                                             in excess of 50,000 tonnes

Biological treatment where the yearly 
treatment capacity authorized for the 
facility is

- more than 2,000 tonnes without             $15/tonne 
exceeding 5,000 tonnes
- more than 5,000 tonnes without             $75,000 + $20/tonne for the quantity
exceeding 50,000 tonnes                      in excess of 5,000 tonnes
- more than 50,000 tonnes                    $975,000 + $25/tonne for the quantity
                                             in excess of 50,000 tonnes

Thermal treatment

- where the facility is operated as part     1% of capital costs of the facility
of an industrial or commercial activity      multiplied by the percentage of 
other than the reclamation of residual       exogenous residual organic materials
materials and the operator is authorized     that the operator is authorized to
to receive at the facility more than         receive per year 
2,000 tonnes of exogenous residual 
organic materials per year                   - minimum $200,000
                                             - maximum $4,000,000
- any other cases                            1% of capital costs of the reclamation
                                             facility
                                             - minimum $200,000
                                             - maximum $4,000,000

    

(1) In the case where the use of the facility is to sort, sort green residues or sort and treat biological materials, the amount of the guarantee is calculated on the basis of the yearly total capacity of residual materials that the operator is authorized to receive at the operator’s facility.

(2) In the case where the use of the facility is to store residual organic materials, the amount of the guarantee is calculated on the basis of the total capacity of residual organic materials that the operator is authorized to store at any time at the operator’s facility.

(3) In the case of a biological treatment facility operated as part of an industrial or commercial activity other than the reclamation of residual materials, the amount of the guarantee is calculated on the basis of the yearly treatment capacity authorized for the facility less the quantity of residual organic materials generated by the activity.

(4) In the case of a facility for sludge treatment by biomethanation operated as part of the operation of municipal wastewater treatment works, the amount of the guarantee is calculated on the basis of the yearly treatment capacity authorized for the facility less the quantity of sludge generated by the municipal wastewater treatment works.

(5) In the case of a residual organic materials thermal treatment facility operated as part of an industrial or commercial activity other than the reclamation of residual materials, the percentage of exogenous residual organic materials that the operator is authorized to receive per year is calculated according to the following formula, where “ROM” means “residual organic materials”:

     Quantity of exogenous ROM authorized (tonnes/year) 
                  - 2,000 tonnes/year
-----------------------------------------------------------  x 100
      Total quantity of residual materials authorized 
              for the facility (tonnes/year)
