    Halogenated fuel of low calorific value

Halogenated low energy fuel. Weak-burning mixtures with chlorine or other halogens, for Quebec permit holders only.

Is Quebec N09 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. N09 is a Quebec residual hazardous-material category. The material has to meet the regulatory definition first, and still meet it once the exclusions and quantity rules are applied.

Record N09 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 into, out of or through Canada, 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 N09 cover?
