ComplyOnSiteIs B.C. Type 8 hazardous waste?
Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 8 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 8 is the shipping name on the B.C. hazardous waste manifest. B.C.’s exclusions and shipment rules still apply.

Type 8 covers cyanide plating-bath liquids. It excludes the same residue from any source other than non-precious metal electroplating 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.
