    MSMA/cacodylic-acid by-product salts

Type 54 requires the material to arise during production of MSMA and cacodylic acid.

By-product salts from the production of MSMA & cacodylic acid. Hazardous arsenic-bearing salts from making herbicide chemicals.

Is B.C. Type 54 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 54 is the Schedule 7 shipping name for a listed B.C. hazardous waste. The waste must match the entry's description and fall inside the hazardous-waste definition once exclusions are applied.

For a regulated listed-waste shipment, Type 54 is the shipping name on the B.C. hazardous waste manifest. The exclusions and shipment rules for B.C. still apply.

What does B.C. Type 54 cover?

Type 54 covers MSMA/cacodylic-acid by-product salts. The material must come from the production of MSMA and cacodylic acid. It is a B.C. shipping name for a listed waste, not a TDG class, and it doesn't cover similar material from other processes.
