F027, Unused chlorophenol formulations.

  • Federal F source codes

    Unused chlorophenol formulations

Use F027 only when the waste stream and non-specific Schedule 12 source both match.

Discarded chlorophenol formulations, such as unused wood preservatives & pesticides. Stream and source must both match.

Is Federal F027 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal F027 lists unused chlorophenol formulations. 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 waste classification in the waste-line details of the federal notification in CNMTS. The movement rules and exclusions apply.

What does Federal F027 cover?

This is unused formulations containing tri-, tetra- or pentachlorophenol, or compounds made from them. A formulation whose only component is hexachlorophene made from prepurified 2,4,5-trichlorophenol is excluded.

Official wording
Discarded unused formulations containing tri-, tetra- or pentachlorophenol or discarded unused formulations containing compounds derived from those chlorophenols, excluding formulations containing hexachlorophene synthesized from prepurified 2,4,5-trichlorophenol as the sole component.

Are unused chlorophenol formulations Federal F027 or another code?

CodeWhen it fits
F027The unused formulation holds a named chlorophenol or derivative and isn't the hexachlorophene exception.

Decide from where the material came from, how it was used, what is in it and the test results. A shared chemical or process word doesn't make 2 codes interchangeable. The full listed condition and any federal exclusion still decide.
