K-listed waste
Air-pollution-control dust or sludge from secondary lead smelting
Industry: Secondary lead.
ComplyOnSiteIs K069 hazardous waste?
Yes. K069 is nonacute K-listed hazardous waste when the waste comes from the named process and matches the named stream. The federal table gives it hazard code (T), toxicity.
A K listing depends on where and how the waste was made, not on a test result alone. A test may add a characteristic code, but it doesn't remove the listing.
On a required hazardous waste manifest, put K069 in Item 13. Check the VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules too.
What does K069 cover?
Emission-control dust or sludge from secondary lead smelting. The K069 listing is administratively stayed for sludge from secondary acid scrubber systems.

Is secondary lead emission-control dust always K069?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| K069 | Emission-control dust or sludge from secondary lead smelting, except secondary acid-scrubber sludge under the administrative stay. |
| K100 | Waste leaching solution from acid leaching of emission control dust/sludge from secondary lead smelting. |
The industry, production step and waste form tell these K listings apart, not the chemicals in the waste. The rows above are only the nearby listed streams, so also add any characteristic or other listing that fits. One waste can carry more than one federal code.
Which wastes take K069?
| Waste | When it’s K069 |
|---|---|
| Secondary lead-smelting emission-control dust | It is secondary lead-smelting emission-control waste |
Which codes sit beside K069?
