    Biological-treatment sludge

Pumpable sludge from biological treatment.

Pumpable sludge from biological treatment. Untreated sludge is form 608 & dewatered sludge is form 491.

Where does Texas form code 607 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 607, then 1 final class character. Form 607 puts the stream in the organic sludges category.

Form 607 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 607 cover?

Pumpable organic sludge made by a biological treatment process. The process and the sludge consistency define it. Sewage has its own entry, so treatment origin alone doesn't settle every overlap.
