    Halogenated degreasing solvents

Type 1 uses a closed solvent list; an unlisted solvent does not fit this entry.

Spent halogenated degreasing solvents such as perc, TCE and methylene chloride, plus sludges from recovering them.

Is B.C. Type 1 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 1 is a Schedule 7 shipping name for a listed B.C. hazardous waste. The waste must match the entry's description and stay inside the hazardous-waste definition after exclusions.

On a regulated listed-waste shipment, Type 1 is the shipping name on the B.C. hazardous waste manifest. B.C.’s exclusions and shipment rules still apply.

What does B.C. Type 1 cover?

This Type covers halogenated degreasing solvents. Its solvent list is closed, so an unlisted solvent doesn't fit. Type 1 is a B.C. shipping name for a listed waste. It isn't a TDG class, and it isn't a general code for similar material from another process.
