ComplyOnSiteIs Quebec J03 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. J03 is a Quebec residual hazardous-material category. The material must meet the regulatory definition first, and still meet it after the exclusions and quantity rules are applied.
Record J03 as the Quebec MDR category. For 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 interprovincial, import, export or transit movement 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 J03 cover?
Schedule 4 category for solids with PCBs in a lower band running from 50 to 10,000 mg/kg (1%). It isn't clear whether the ends of that band are included. The separate higher category starts at 10,000 mg/kg. It sits in Quebec's Hazardous materials containing PCBs or contaminated by PCBs group.
