  • Federal leachate constituent codes

    Diquat

Use L70 when its Method 1311 extract result is >= 7.00 mg/L.

Leachate toxic waste, where the Method 1311 extract holds 7 mg/L or more of diquat. Diquat is a contact weed killer.

Is Federal L70 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal L70 lists diquat. 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 L70 cover?

Federal L70 covers diquat. Use L70 when its Method 1311 extract result is 7.00 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 L70.
