Use K052 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.
ComplyOnSiteIs Federal K052 hazardous waste?
Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. K052 is the federal listing for leaded refinery tank-bottom residue. 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. Follow the movement rules and exclusions.
What does Federal K052 cover?
Leaded tank bottoms from petroleum refining. The waste form and its generating step must both match, so a similar material from another operation isn't K052.

Is leaded refinery tank-bottom residue always Federal K052?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| K052 | It is leaded refinery tank-bottom residue from the named Schedule 12 process. |
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.
