ComplyOnSiteIs Federal K044 hazardous waste?
Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal K044 is the federal listing for explosives manufacturing 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 K044 cover?
Sludge removed while treating wastewater from the manufacturing and processing of explosives. Both the waste form and its named generating step must match. A similar material from another operation isn't K044.

|---|---|
| K044 | The waste is explosives manufacturing 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.
