Vinyl chloride, a toxic gas used to make PVC plastic. Leachate with 0.20 mg/L or more of vinyl chloride is hazardous.

Is Federal L99 hazardous waste?

Yes, if the listing and federal definition apply. Federal L99 lists vinyl chloride. The source, composition, concentration or test condition on record must match, and the statutory exclusions in SOR/2021-25 still apply.

For international shipments under federal rules, the applicant records the waste classification in the waste-line details of the federal notification in CNMTS. The movement rules and exclusions apply.

What does Federal L99 cover?

Federal L99 covers vinyl chloride. Use L99 when the Method 1311 extract result is >= 0.20 mg/L. The material, source and any stated composition, concentration, test or use condition must match, because the name alone doesn't make the listing.
