Is Federal E004 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. E004 is the federal listing for acetic anhydride. The source, composition, concentration or test condition on record must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

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

What does Federal E004 cover?

E004 covers acetic anhydride. Use it when acetic anhydride is present at >= 100.0 mg/kg by mass. The material, its source and any stated composition, concentration, test or use condition must match, because the name alone doesn't make the listing.
