    Discarded calcium fluoride sludge

Use B2070 for discarded calcium fluoride sludge as a Basel List B waste without an Annex III hazard.

Discarded calcium fluoride sludge, a white by-product of treating fluoride waste. Not hazardous.

Is Basel B2070 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. Basel B2070 is on Basel List B, so material that matches it is normally outside the Convention's hazardous definition. That changes if Annex I constituents give it an Annex III hazardous characteristic. SOR/2021-25, including its exclusions, decides Canadian federal control.

On a federally regulated international shipment, the applicant enters the waste classification in the waste line of the federal notification in CNMTS. The movement rules and exclusions still apply.

What does Basel B2070 cover?

Covers sludge made up of calcium fluoride. List B status holds only while the waste has no Annex III hazardous characteristic.
