Managing ECCC data under Single Window

Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) will have new data requirements under SWI. Make sure you’re prepared.

Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) informs Canadians about protecting and conserving Canada’s natural heritage, and ensuring a clean, safe and sustainable environment for present and future generations.

For Single Window, there are four government programs that fall under ECCC. Those are:

  • Hazardous Waste and Hazardous Recyclable Materials
