    Toxaphene production wastewater sludge

Use K041 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.

Wastewater treatment sludge from producing toxaphene, an insecticide. A federal K source code for pesticide plants.

Is Federal K041 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal K041 is the federal listing for toxaphene production wastewater sludge. The source, composition, concentration or test condition must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

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

What does Federal K041 cover?

Sludge removed while treating wastewater generated while producing toxaphene. Both the waste form and its named generating step must match. A similar material from another operation isn't K041.

Official wording
Wastewater treatment sludge from the production of toxaphene.

Is toxaphene production wastewater sludge always Federal K041?

CodeWhen it fits
K041The waste is toxaphene production wastewater sludge from the named Schedule 12 process.

Decide between these entries from the material's real origin, use, composition and test results. A shared chemical or process word doesn't make the codes interchangeable. The full listed condition and any federal exclusion still govern.
