ComplyOnSiteWhere does Texas form code 601 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 601, then 1 final class character. Form 601 puts the stream in the organic sludges category.
Form 601 doesn't set a hazard status. The stream's composition, source and properties decide which class character follows it.
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 applicable EPA waste codes. The 3 form digits alone are incomplete.
The generator sets the class from applicable exclusions, federal hazardous-waste listings and characteristics, then Texas industrial-waste criteria. H means hazardous. 1, 2 and 3 are nonhazardous industrial classes. Process knowledge or testing backs the decision, and picking a form doesn't set the class.
What does Texas form code 601 cover?
Pumpable, mostly organic residue left in the still after processing halogenated solvents. The wording also takes other organic liquids, so it overlaps form 602.

Is still bottoms waste Texas form code 601 or 602?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| 601 | The waste is pumpable still bottoms from halogenated solvents or other organic liquids. |
| 602 | The still bottoms come from nonhalogenated solvents. |
Both descriptions take residue from other organic liquids. Record the distillation process and what is in the residue. RG-022 lets you pick one of several equally suitable forms and gives no priority test for this overlap.
Which wastes take Texas form code 601?
| Waste | When it’s 601 |
|---|---|
| Spent solvents | Pumpable still bottoms from halogenated solvents or other organic liquids. |
| Halogenated solvent still bottoms | The pumpable residue comes from distilling halogenated solvents or other organic liquids. |
