ComplyOnSiteIs Ontario 281 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. Ontario 281 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 281 cover?
Organic-rich non-halogenated material. Examples include a concentrated blend or bulk mixture of non-halogenated solvent, oil or another organic, prepared for incineration at a transfer or processing site. Whether it is hazardous is a separate decision under Ontario’s waste rules.

The registration table separates rich from lean non-halogenated mixtures but gives no percentage of organic content. Don’t make one up, and don’t treat either class as a catch-all for solvent mixtures.
