    Antifreeze, brake and hydraulic liquids

Use D01 for antifreeze and brake or hydraulic fluid.

Antifreeze, brake fluid & hydraulic fluid, such as engine coolant from vehicles. Quebec groups them as organic solutions.

Is Quebec D01 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. D01 is a Quebec category for residual hazardous materials. The material must meet the regulatory definition first, and still fit after the exclusions and quantity rules.

Record D01 as the Quebec MDR category. If the material is dangerous goods in transport, show the MDR code apart from the TDG shipping description. The category doesn't replace the UN number, shipping name, class or packing group.

A regulated movement between provinces, or an import, export or transit, may also need the federal movement document. Each document has its own scope, so the Quebec category alone doesn't settle the paperwork.

What does Quebec D01 cover?

This Schedule 4 category is for antifreeze, and brake or hydraulic fluid. It belongs to Quebec's Organic solutions group.
