Halogenated non-solvent organic liquid

The hazardous liquid contains halogens but was not used as a solvent.

Hazardous organic liquid containing halogens that was never used as a solvent. Halogenated solvents take code 211.

Is California code 341 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. Waste must first be found hazardous. Code 341 isn't a restricted code, but a restricted category that fits takes priority over it. A code that isn't restricted doesn't make waste non-hazardous.

When a shipment needs the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, enter 341 in Item 13 for the waste line. Use one California code, plus the federal RCRA codes when the waste is federally hazardous.

RCRA waste meets a federal listing or characteristic, with no federal exclusion that applies. Non-RCRA waste is hazardous under California rules only. California presumes hazardous waste is RCRA unless the generator shows it isn't, so keep that determination.

What does California code 341 cover?

This code is for hazardous organic liquid holding chlorine, fluorine, bromine or iodine, in the non-solvent category. Also check the total halogenated organic compound concentration against restricted code 741.

HOC: halogenated organic compound
Official wording: 22 CCR division 4.5, chapter 11, Appendix XII(b)

Is halogenated liquid California code 341, 211, 342 or 741?

Code	When it fits
341	The hazardous halogenated organic liquid is in the non-solvent category and code 741 does not apply.
211	The hazardous halogenated liquid is solvent and restricted code 741 does not apply.
342	The organic liquid also contains a metal named under code 121.
741	Total HOCs in the liquid are at least 1,000 mg/L.

Restricted code 741 wins, although dated 2017 guidance conflicts at exactly 1,000 mg/L. The regulations don't say which of 341 and 342 wins when both fit.
