What is EWC code 01 03 05?

01 03 05 is the European Waste Catalogue (List of Waste) code for other tailings containing hazardous substances. It sits in chapter 01 (wastes resulting from exploration, mining, quarrying, and physical and chemical treatment of minerals). You use this six-digit code to classify the waste on a waste transfer note, a hazardous waste consignment note, or a Digital Waste Tracking record.

This is a hazardous waste code. Movements of hazardous waste need a hazardous waste consignment note (not an ordinary waste transfer note), and consignment notes must be kept for at least 3 years.
