Is Federal E176 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal E176 is the listing for zinc phenolsulphonate. The source, composition, concentration or test result must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

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

What does Federal E176 cover?

E176 covers zinc phenolsulphonate at 100.0 mg/kg or more by mass. The material, source and any stated composition, concentration, test or use condition must match too. The name alone doesn't make it E176.
