ComplyOnSiteIs Federal E140 hazardous waste?
Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal E140 is the federal listing for propylene oxide. The source, composition, concentration or test condition must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.
For 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 still apply.
What does Federal E140 cover?
E140 covers propylene oxide. Use it when propylene oxide is present at 100.0 mg/kg or more by mass. Match the material, its source and any stated condition, because the name alone doesn't make it a listed waste.

|---|---|
| E140 | The waste holds propylene oxide at 100.0 mg/kg or more by mass. |
Decide from where the material came from, how it was used, what it contains and the test results. A shared chemical or process word doesn't make the codes interchangeable. The full listed condition and any federal exclusion still decide.
