ComplyOnSiteWhere does Federal reason Q1 go on the federal notification?
In the waste classification details. Federal reason Q1 is a field value that describes a waste or recyclable line on the federal notification. It records the reason for disposal or recycling, and doesn't decide whether the material is hazardous.
For federally regulated international shipments, the applicant enters the waste classification in the waste-line details of the federal notification in CNMTS. The movement rules and exclusions still apply.
What does Federal reason Q1 cover?
Q1 records production residues that are not otherwise specified in this Part as the reason for disposal or recycling. Pick it from the activity, reason, physical state or intended operation reported for that waste line, not from the waste name alone.
