Type 70 excludes the same residue from a source other than the manufacturing and processing of explosives.

Sludge from treating wastewater from making & processing explosives. A sludge from explosives plants.

Is B.C. Type 70 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 70 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 once exclusions are applied.

On a regulated listed-waste shipment, Type 70 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 70 cover?

Type 70 covers explosives-manufacturing wastewater sludge. It excludes the same residue from any source other than the manufacturing and processing of explosives. It is a B.C. shipping name for a listed waste, not a TDG class, and not a catch-all for similar material from another process.
