History
The Nova Scotia Minister’s Task Force on Hazardous Waste Management was created by Hon. George Moody, Minister of the Environment in June 1985. Morris Haugg and Derrill Hynick were appointed as co-chairs with representatives from the Environmental Control Council and the Department of the Environment as members of the Task Force. Its mandate was to examine the hazardous waste management situation in Nova Scotia and create an action plan to deal with problems. In October 1985, an interim report was submitted to the Minister, who then asked the Task Force to develop a comprehensive plan for the management of dangerous goods and hazardous wastes. Paul Buxton was appointed chairperson. The Task Force’s final report was submitted to Minister George Moody in April 1987 and then disbanded. Buxton was subsequently named special adviser to the Minister of the Environment on hazardous waste.
