Lead waste. Toxic heavy metal waste from old paint, solder, batteries & ammunition. Ontario TCLP limit 5 mg/L.

Is Ontario D008 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the leachate limit is met. The Ontario leachate-toxicity limit for lead is 5 mg/L in the TCLP extract. The limit is inclusive, so a result at the limit meets this constituent’s criterion, subject to the regulation’s exclusions. A concentration in the original bulk waste is a different measurement.

For a subject-waste shipment, the generator records the 3-digit class and primary characterization in the waste-number details of the Ontario hazardous waste manifest. This hazardous-waste number names the constituent for the regulatory assessment and doesn’t replace that class-and-letter waste number. Land-disposal treatment standards are assessed separately.

What does Ontario D008 cover?

This number is for lead in the extract from the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure. The classification limit is 5 mg/L. It isn’t tied to any source industry, container or physical form, and Ontario sets land-disposal treatment requirements separately.

Does lead make waste Ontario D008?

CodeWhen it fits
D008The TCLP extract holds 5 mg/L or more.
This constituent criterion not metThe TCLP extract is below 5 mg/L. Other hazardous criteria still need assessing.

A below-limit result for one constituent doesn’t clear other constituents, characteristic hazards or listed-waste rules. Apply the classification threshold first, then the separate land-disposal treatment standard.

Which wastes take Ontario D008?
