    Sludge with reactive sulfides

Pumpable sludge containing reactive sulfides.

Pumpable inorganic sludge with reactive sulfides. Sludge with any other reactive takes a different form code.

Where does Texas form code 508 go in the Texas waste code?

In characters 5–7. The 8-character code is a 4-character stream sequence, the 3-digit form 508 and a final class character. Form 508 puts the stream in the inorganic sludges category.

The form doesn't give a hazard status. The stream's makeup, source and properties decide the class character.

For a hazardous or Class 1 shipment that needs a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, enter the full Texas code in Item 13, across 2 blocks on paper. Add any EPA waste codes alongside 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. 1, 2 and 3 are the nonhazardous industrial classes. Testing or process knowledge supports that call, and picking a form doesn't set the class.

What does Texas form code 508 cover?

This form covers mostly inorganic, pumpable sludge that is reactive because of reactive sulfides. Finding a sulfide compound doesn't prove the sulfides are reactive.
