ComplyOnSiteWhere does Texas form code 698 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 698, then 1 final class character. Form 698 puts the stream in the organic sludges category.
This form needs nonhazardous waste. Industrial waste with PCBs at 50 ppm or more is Class 1 when it isn't RCRA hazardous, and the PCB form doesn't make that call.
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 698 cover?
Nonhazardous sludge that is mostly organic and pumpable, with PCBs from 50 ppm up to but under 500 ppm. The form needs the waste to be nonhazardous. The concentration doesn't make it so.

Is PCB sludge Texas form code 698, 699 or 598?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| 698 | The nonhazardous organic sludge holds PCBs at 50 to under 500 ppm. |
| 699 | The nonhazardous organic sludge holds PCBs at 500 ppm or more. |
| 598 | The nonhazardous inorganic sludge holds PCBs at 50 to under 500 ppm. |
Keep the nonhazardous finding, the organic make-up, the pumpable form and the PCB result as separate evidence.
