    Chlorpyrifos

Use L44 when its Method 1311 extract result is >= 9.000 mg/L.

Leachate toxic waste with 9 mg/L or more of chlorpyrifos in the extract. Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate insecticide.

Is Federal L44 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. L44 is the federal listing for chlorpyrifos. 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 L44 cover?

L44 covers chlorpyrifos. Use it when the Method 1311 extract result is 9.000 mg/L or more. Match the material, source and any stated composition, concentration, test or use condition. The name alone isn't enough.

CodeWhen it fits
L44The Method 1311 extract result is 9.000 mg/L or more.

Pick the code from the material's real origin, use, composition and test results. A shared chemical or process word doesn't make 2 codes interchangeable. The full listed condition and any federal exclusion still rule.
