D017, 2,4,5-TP (Silvex).

  • Characteristic hazardous waste

    2,4,5-TP (Silvex)

2,4,5-TP (Silvex) at 1 mg/L or more in the TCLP extract.

Toxic characteristic waste from 2,4,5-TP (Silvex), an old herbicide. Waste is D017 when the TCLP extract holds 1 mg/L or more.

Is D017 hazardous waste?

Yes. Waste is D017 when the TCLP extract of a representative sample holds 2,4,5-TP (Silvex) at or above 1 mg/L. That makes it toxic hazardous waste, whatever industry or process it came from.

Compare the 2,4,5-TP (Silvex) in the TCLP extract with 1 mg/L. A total 2,4,5-TP (Silvex) result is a different measure, so it can't be compared with this limit.

D017 is a nonacute characteristic. On a required hazardous waste manifest, put D017 in Item 13. See VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules.

What does D017 cover?

D017 applies when a representative sample gives a TCLP extract with 2,4,5-TP (Silvex) at or above 1 mg/L. The limit is for the extract, not the waste’s total 2,4,5-TP (Silvex).

Is 2,4,5-TP (Silvex) waste always D017?

CodeWhen it fits
D017The TCLP extract of a representative sample holds 2,4,5-TP (Silvex) at or above 1 mg/L.
D004–D043The 2,4,5-TP (Silvex) result is below 1 mg/L, but another contaminant or characteristic can still apply.

Generators decide the codes from testing or knowledge of the waste, under 40 CFR 262.11. A result below 1 mg/L rules out D017 only. It doesn't make the waste nonhazardous.

Which wastes take D017?

WasteWhen it’s D017
Contaminated soilIts 2,4,5-TP (Silvex) leaches at the TCLP limit or above.
Waste pesticidesIts 2,4,5-TP (Silvex) leaches at the TCLP limit or above.
