Federal constituent code for waste containing vanadium compounds, from catalysts, steel making and boiler ash.

Is Federal C2 hazardous waste?

Not from this code alone. Federal C2 is one classification component for hazardous waste or hazardous recyclable material. It records a constituent or characteristic. The full evidence and the definitions and exclusions in SOR/2021-25 decide the federal status.

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

What does Federal C2 cover?

Federal C2 covers vanadium compounds. Use it when the material contains vanadium compounds. Match the material, its source and any stated composition, concentration, test or use condition. The name alone doesn't settle it.
