Determination of Administrative Penalty Amount

Administrative penalty amount, general

7. (1) Subject to subsections (2), (3) and (4), the administrative penalty amount under subsection 89 (2) of the Act in respect of a contravention shall consist of the following, determined in accordance with this Regulation:

1.  A base penalty amount.

2.  An amount for economic benefit.

(2) The administrative penalty amount in respect of a person’s contravention of a provision set out in Schedule 1 shall not exceed $1 million.

(3) The administrative penalty amount in respect of a contravention of a provision set out in Schedule 2 shall not exceed $1 million minus the total amount of any administrative penalties in respect of the contravention of the same provision by the same person in the previous 365 days.

(4) If, after determining the administrative penalty amount in respect of a contravention in accordance with subsections (1), (2) and (3), the Registrar or Deputy Registrar determines that, due to its magnitude, the imposition of the administrative penalty is punitive in nature having regard to all the circumstances, including any other administrative penalty amounts in respect of contraventions under the same order, the Registrar or Deputy Registrar shall reduce the amount such that the imposition of the administrative penalty is consistent with the purposes set out in subsection 89 (1) of the Act.

Base penalty amount, determination

8. (1) For the purposes of setting out the proposed base penalty amount in a notice under subsection 3 (1) and the final base penalty amount set out in an order under subsection 6 (1), the Registrar or Deputy Registrar shall determine the base penalty amount in accordance with the following rules:

1.  The Registrar or Deputy Registrar shall consider the following factors:

i.  The contravention’s impact, if any, on the Authority’s ability to carry out its objects.

ii.  The contravention’s impact, if any, on resource recovery and waste reduction of a class of materials designated for the purposes of section 60 of the Act.

iii.  With respect to the person who carried out the contravention,

A.  the person’s history, if any, of complying or not complying with the Waste Diversion Transition Act, 2016 or its regulations or with the Resource Recovery and Circular Economy Act, 2016 or its regulations, and

B.  any information available to the Registrar regarding whether the person has remedied the contravention or is in the process of remedying the contravention, and how quickly the contravention was or is being remedied.

2.  For a contravention of a provision set out in Schedule 1, the base penalty amount shall not exceed the applicable maximum base penalty amount, as set out in the applicable Table to Schedule 1.

3.  For a contravention of a provision set out in Schedule 2, the following rules apply:

i.  The daily base penalty amount shall not exceed the applicable maximum daily base amount, as set out in the applicable Table to Schedule 2 and shall be multiplied by the number of full or partial days during which the contravention continued before it was remedied.

ii.  The base penalty amount in respect of a contravention shall not exceed the applicable maximum total base penalty amount, as set out in the applicable Table to Schedule 2, minus the total of any base penalty amounts included in administrative penalties that were imposed in respect of a contravention of the same provision by the same person in the previous 365 days.

(2) For the purposes of paragraph 3 of subsection (1), a contravention of a provision set out in Schedule 2 that requires a person to do something within a particular time period shall be considered to have been remedied when the person has done it, even if the person has done it after it was required to be done.

Amount for economic benefit, determination

9. The Registrar or Deputy Registrar shall consider the following factors when determining, with respect to a contravention of a provision set out in Schedule 1 or 2, the proposed amount for economic benefit to be set out in a notice under subsection 3 (1) and the final amount for economic benefit to be set out in an order under subsection 6 (1):

1.  Costs that the person avoided incurring by failing to comply with the provision.

2.  Costs that the person delayed incurring by delaying compliance with the provision.

3.  Gains that the person has accrued by failing to comply with the provision.

Determination of final administrative penalty amount

10. (1) The Registrar or Deputy Registrar shall, when determining the final administrative penalty amount to be set out in an order, reapply sections 8 and 9 and redetermine the base penalty amount and amount for economic benefit if the Registrar or Deputy Registrar considers it to be appropriate based on any additional information now available to the Registrar or Deputy Registrar that was not available at the time of giving the notice under subsection 3 (1), which may include information regarding the continuation of the contravention following the giving of the notice.

(2) In making the determinations under subsection (1), the Registrar or Deputy Registrar shall consider any information contained in a request received under section 4.

No penalties re “best efforts” provisions

11. Despite anything else in this Regulation, the Registrar or Deputy Registrar shall not issue an order in respect of a person’s contravention of a requirement to make best efforts to do something.
