    Parathion

Leachate toxic waste, where the Method 1311 extract holds 5 mg/L or more of parathion. Parathion is an organophosphate insecticide.

Is Federal L26 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. L26 is the federal listing for parathion. The recorded source, composition, concentration or test condition must match, and the exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still hold.

For federally regulated international shipments, the applicant records the waste classification in the waste-line details of the federal notification in CNMTS. The movement rules and exclusions go with it.

What waste does Federal L26 cover?

L26 covers parathion. Use it when the Method 1311 extract result is 5.00 mg/L or more. Match the material, source and any stated composition, concentration, test or use condition. The name alone isn't enough.
