Is Federal L77 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal L77 lists ethyl, methyl ketone. 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 L77 cover?

Federal L77 covers ethyl, methyl ketone. Use L77 when its Method 1311 extract result is 200.00 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 L77.
