    Untreated toxaphene production wastewater

Use K098 only when the waste stream and named Schedule 12 industry process both match.

Federal K code for untreated process wastewater from toxaphene production. Toxaphene is a chlorinated insecticide.

Is Federal K098 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. K098 is the federal listing for untreated toxaphene production wastewater. 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 K098 cover?

Untreated process wastewater from the production of toxaphene. The waste form and its generating step must both match, so a similar material from another operation isn't K098.

Official wording
Untreated process wastewater from the production of toxaphene.

Is untreated toxaphene production wastewater always Federal K098?

CodeWhen it fits
K098It is untreated toxaphene production wastewater 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.
