Is Federal E150 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal E150 is the federal listing for sodium phosphate, dibasic. 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 E150 cover?

E150 covers sodium phosphate, dibasic. Use it when sodium phosphate, dibasic 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.
