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.

Federal C45 covers organic nitrogen compounds, especially aliphatic amines. Use it when the material contains organic nitrogen compounds, especially aliphatic amines. Match the material, its source and any stated composition, concentration, test or use condition. The name alone doesn't settle it.
