    Secondary lead-smelter emission-control dust and sludge

Use K069 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.

Federal K code for emission control dust and sludge from secondary lead smelting, where lead is recovered from scrap.

Is Federal K069 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. K069 is the federal listing for secondary lead-smelter emission-control dust and 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. Follow the movement rules and exclusions.

What does Federal K069 cover?

Dust and sludge caught by emission controls in secondary lead smelting. The waste form and its generating step must both match, so a similar material from another operation isn't K069.

Official wording
Emission control dust and sludge from secondary lead smelting.

Is secondary lead-smelter emission-control dust and sludge always Federal K069?

CodeWhen it fits
K069It is secondary lead-smelter emission-control dust and sludge 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.
