Is 08 04 16 hazardous?
No, once an assessment shows it isn’t. 08 04 16 has no asterisk, but WM3 lists it as mirror non-hazardous: the non-hazardous side of a choice between codes, decided by assessing the waste under WM3.
If it’s hazardous: 08 04 15*. If you can’t find out what’s in it, use the hazardous code.
It moves on a waste transfer note. The hazardous code needs a hazardous waste consignment note instead.
