Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) is a solvent for paints, glues & coatings. Its TCLP extract limit is 200 mg/L.

Is Manitoba L77 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the Schedule C extract limit is met. L77 is a Category 4 Provincial Waste Code. Waste takes it when the Method 1311 extract holds methyl ethyl ketone at 200 mg/L or more.

The 3-digit provincial waste class goes in a separate field. It doesn't replace the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code.

For regulated hazardous waste, enter L77 in the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code field on the Manitoba movement document. Manitoba’s registration and shipment rules still apply.
