Waste Classification D -Waste <br />Criteria and Characteristics of Hazardous Waste <br />EPA Hazardous <br />Waste Number <br />A solid waste that meets any of the following criteria: <br />Regulatory <br />Level (m /L) <br />1. A liquid that has a flash point of less than 1400 F as determined by a Pensky- <br />Chromium <br />Martens closed cup tester using ASTM method D-93-70 or D-93-80; <br />D040 <br />2. A solid, under standard temperature and pressure, that can cause fire through <br />Ignitability <br />friction, absorption of moisture, or spontaneous chemical changes and burn vigorously <br />(D001) <br />and persistently that it creates a hazard; <br />D042 <br />3. An ignitable compressed gas as defined by the Department of Transportation in 49 <br />76.68 <br />CFR 173.300; or, <br />Vinyl chloride <br />4. An oxidizer as defined by the Department of Transportation in 49 CFR 173.151. <br />A solid waste that meets any of the following criteria: <br />1. An aqueous liquid that has a pH of 2 or less or 12.5 or more; or, <br />Corrosivity <br />(D002) <br />2. A liquid that corrodes steel at a rate of 6.35 mm or more per year as determined by <br />the National Association of Corrosion Engineers <br />A solid waste that meets any of the following criteria: <br />1. Instability and readiness to undergo violent change; <br />2. Violent reactions when mixed with water; <br />3. Formation of potentially explosive mixtures when mixed with water; <br />4. Generation of toxic fumes in quantities sufficient to present a danger to human <br />health or the environment when mixed with water; <br />Reactivity <br />(D003) <br />5. Cyanide or sulfide waste which generate toxic fumes when exposed to acidic <br />conditions; <br />6. Ease of detonation or explosive reaction when exposed to pressure or heat; <br />7. Ease of detonation or explosive decomposition or reaction at standard temperature <br />and pressure; or, <br />8. Defined as a forbidden explosive by the Department of Transportation. <br />Toxicity <br />A solid waste whose extract under the test procedure specified under 40CFR Part <br />(D004- <br />261.24 contains one or more constituents at concentrations greater than those specified in <br />D043 <br />the Maximum Concentration of Contaminants for the Toxicity Characteristic Table: <br />EPA Hazardous <br />Waste Number <br />Contaminant <br />Regulatory <br />Level (m /L) <br />D007 <br />Chromium <br />79.11 <br />D040 <br />Trichloroethylene <br />78.3 <br />D041 <br />2,4,5 -Trichlorophenol <br />77.49 <br />D042 <br />2,4,6-Trichloro phenol <br />76.68 <br />D043 <br />Vinyl chloride <br />75.87 <br />https://essr.umd.edu/epa-hazardous-waste-codes <br />16 <br />
