Classification context
Compare the official description with the process that produced the waste and its known characteristics. A code lookup does not itself establish a classification or a receiving facility’s acceptance.
Prepare the waste record
Document the generating process, inputs, composition, potential contamination and any relevant analysis. Keep the basis of the classification decision with the inventory.
