    Phorate

Leachate toxic waste, where the Method 1311 extract holds 0.2 mg/L or more of phorate. Phorate is an organophosphate insecticide.

Is Federal L85 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal L85 lists phorate. 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 L85 cover?

Federal L85 covers phorate. Use L85 when its Method 1311 extract result is 0.20 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 L85.
