ComplyOnSiteIs Ontario 254 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. Ontario 254 names the waste stream. Whether the waste is subject waste depends on its hazardous characterization or liquid-industrial status, and on the exclusions. The waste number also needs a primary characterization letter after the 3-digit class.
For subject waste, the generator enters the class-and-letter waste number in the waste details of the Ontario hazardous waste manifest. Ontario’s exclusions and shipment rules apply.
What does Ontario 254 cover?
Oily water and waste oil from transfer or processing sites. It covers only oily water or oil from classes 251, 252 and 253 after bulking, blending or processing at a waste transfer or processing site. Whether it is hazardous is a separate decision under Ontario’s waste rules.
Is oily water from a transfer or processing site Ontario 254 or another class?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| 254 | The stream is oily water or waste oil from a transfer or processing site. |
| 251 | The waste is petroleum oil or sludge before the transfer-site bulking, blending or processing. |
When several characterizations apply, the registration flowchart picks the primary one. The 3-digit class doesn’t replace the flowchart or the exclusions.
