ComplyOnSiteIs Federal L56 hazardous waste?
Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal L56 lists dichloromethane. The source, composition, concentration or test condition must match, and the statutory exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.
On a federally regulated international shipment, the applicant enters the classification in the waste line of the federal notification in CNMTS. The movement rules and exclusions still apply.
What does Federal L56 cover?
Federal L56 covers dichloromethane. Use L56 when its Method 1311 extract result is 5.00 mg/L or more. Match the material, source and any stated composition, concentration, test or use condition, because the name alone doesn't make it L56.
