    TNT process water (pink/red)

Type 73 excludes the same residue from a source other than TNT operations.

Pink or red process water from TNT operations. TNT is a military & mining explosive. Other sources are not included.

Is B.C. Type 73 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 73 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 73 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 73 cover?

Type 73 covers TNT process water (pink/red). It excludes the same residue from any source other than TNT operations. 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.
