Is B.C. Type 92 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule 7 description and definition conditions are met. Type 92 is a Schedule 7 shipping name for a listed B.C. hazardous waste. The waste must match the entry and stay inside the definition after exclusions.

For a regulated listed-waste shipment, Type 92 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 92 cover?

This Type covers mercury-cell chlorine wastewater sludge. Type 92 excludes the same residue from any source other than the mercury cell process in chlorine production is excluded.
