ComplyOnSiteWhere does Texas form code 296 go in the Texas waste code?
In characters 5–7. The 8-character code is a 4-character stream sequence, then the 3-digit form 296, then a class character. Form 296 describes a stream in the organic liquids category.
The form doesn't give a hazard status. The stream's makeup, source and properties decide the class character after it.
For a hazardous or Class 1 shipment on a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, enter the full Texas code in Item 13, across 2 blocks on paper. Put any EPA waste codes beside it. The 3 form digits alone are not enough.
The generator sets the class from exclusions, federal hazardous-waste listings and characteristics, then Texas industrial-waste criteria. H means hazardous, and 1, 2 and 3 are nonhazardous industrial classes. Process knowledge or testing backs the decision. Picking a form doesn't set the class.
What does Texas form code 296 cover?
Discarded liquid antifreeze based on ethylene glycol. The base chemical decides it. Calling a liquid coolant or antifreeze isn't enough if the product has another base, and contamination picked up in use still needs a classification check.

Is used glycol antifreeze Texas form code 296?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| 296 | The discarded liquid antifreeze is ethylene-glycol based. |
| 219 | Another organic liquid coolant fits none of the named organic-liquid forms. |
The formulation or safety data sheet shows the coolant base. Recycling alone creates no exemption. Nonhazardous antifreeze from a nonindustrial repair shop sits outside the industrial Class 1, 2 and 3 system. The antifreeze conditions set out the detail.
