    Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane

Use E071 when dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane is present at >= 100.0 mg/kg by mass.

Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane is the persistent organochlorine insecticide long known as DDT. Waste at 100 mg/kg or more by mass.

Is Federal E071 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal E071 lists Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane. The source, composition, concentration or test condition must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

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

What does Federal E071 cover?

Use E071 when Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane is present at >= 100.0 mg/kg by mass. The material, source and any stated condition must match, so the name alone isn't enough.
