ComplyOnSiteIs B.C. Type 78 hazardous waste?
Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 78 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 78 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 78 cover?
Type 78 covers leaded refinery tank sediment. It excludes the same residue from any source other than the petroleum refining industry. 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.
