ANNEX II

LIST OF HAZARDOUS CHARACTERISTICS

• Explosives

An explosive substance or waste is a solid or liquid substance or waste (or mixture of substances or wastes)

which is in itself capable by chemical reaction of producing gas at such a temperature and pressure and at

such a speed as to cause damage to the surroundings.

• Flammable liquids

The word “flammable” has the same meaning as “inflammable”. Flammable liquids are liquids, or mixtures of

liquids, or liquids containing solids in solution or suspension (for example, paints, varnishes, lacquers, etc.,

but not including substances or wastes otherwise classified on account of their dangerous characteristics)

which give off a flammable vapour at temperatures of not more than 60.5ºC, closed-cup test, or not more than

65.6ºC, open-cup test. (Since the results of open-cup tests and of closed-cup tests are not strictly comparable

and even individual results by the same test are often variable, regulations varying from the above figures to

make allowance for such differences would be within the spirit of this definition.)

• Flammable solid

Solids, or waste solids, other than those classed as explosives, which under conditions encountered in

transport are readily combustible, or may cause or contribute to fire through friction.

• Substances or wastes liable to spontaneous combustion

Substances or wastes which are liable to spontaneous heating under normal conditions encountered in

transport, or to heating up on contact with air, and being then liable to catch fire.

• Substances or wastes which, in contact with water emit flammable gases

Substances or wastes which, by interaction with water, are liable to become spontaneously flammable or to

give off flammable gases in dangerous quantities

• Oxidizing

Substances or wastes which, while in themselves not necessarily combustible, may, generally by yielding

oxygen cause, or contribute to, the combustion of other materials.

• Organic Peroxides

Organic substances or wastes which contain the bivalent-o-o-structure are thermally unstable substances
which may undergo exothermic self-accelerating decomposition

• Poisonous (Acute)

Substances or wastes liable either to cause death or serious injury or to harm human health if swallowed or
inhaled or by skin contact

• Infectious substances

Substances or wastes containing viable micro organisms or their toxins which are known or suspected to cause
disease in animals or humans.

• Corrosives

Substances or wastes which, by chemical action, will cause severe damage when in contact with living tissue,
or, in the case of leakage, will materially damage, or even destroy, other goods or the means of transport; they
may also cause other hazards.

• Liberation of toxic gases in contact with air or water

Substances or wastes which, by interaction with air or water, are liable to give off toxic gases in dangerous
quantities.

• Toxic (Delayed or chronic)

Substances or wastes, which if they are inhaled or ingested or if they penetrate the skin, may involve delayed
or chronic effects, including carcinogenicity.

• Ecotoxic

Substances or wastes which if released present or may present immediate or delayed adverse impacts to the
environment by means of bioaccumulation and/or toxic effects upon biotic systems.

• Capable, by any means, after disposal, of yielding another material, e.g., leachate, which possesses
any of the characteristics listed above.

ANNEX III

DISPOSAL OPERATIONS

A. Operations which do not lead to the possibility of resource recovery, recycling, reclamation, direct
re-use or alternative uses

Section A encompasses all such disposal operations which occur in practice.
• Deposit into or onto land, (e.g., landfill, etc.)

• Land treatment, (e.g., biodegradation of liquid or sludgy discards in soils, etc.)
