    Creosote-production wastewater sludge

Type 59 requires the material to arise during production of creosote.

Sludge from treating wastewater at creosote production plants. Creosote is a wood preservative.

Is B.C. Type 59 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 59 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 59 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 59 cover?

Type 59 covers creosote-production wastewater sludge. The material must come from the production of creosote. 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.
