SCHEDULE- I[See rule 3(k), (l) & (za) ]Hazardous materials are materials possessing any one or more of the followingcharacteristics:(i)ToxicityMaterials having the following values of acute toxicity and which, owing to theirphysical and chemical properties, are capable of producing major risk to humanhealth and other living organisms.SNo. DegreeofToxicity1. Extremelytoxic2. HighlytoxicMedium lethaldose by the oralroute (oraltoxicity) LD 50(mg/kg) bodyweight of testanimalsMedium lethal doseby the dermal route(dermal toxicity)LD 50 (mg/kg) bodyweight of testanimals1-50 1-200 0.1-0.551-500 201-2000 0.5-2.0Medium lethalconcentration byinhalation route(four hours) LD 50(mg/kg) bodyweight of testanimals(ii)Flammable materialsFlammable materials with flash point 20 o C or below.(iii)ExplosiveMaterials which may explode under the effect of flame, heat or photo-chemicalconditions. Any other materials included in the Indian Explosive Act.(iv)AcidityMaterials with pH ≤ 5 which may be corrosive, by chemical action, will causesevere damage when in contact with living tissue.(v)AlkalinityHazardous materials/wastes with pH ≥ 9 which may be corrosive and will causesevere damage when in contact with living tissue.(vi)CarcinogenicityMaterials which through exposure are establish to cause cancer in humans andanimals.16
SCHEDULE – II[See rule 3(k) & (l)]List of hazardous materials Constituents with Concentration Limits*[Hazardous materials having constituents of or contaminated with anyof the following]Class AConcentration limit: ≥ 50 mg/kgA1 Antimony and antimony compoundsA2 Arsenic and arsenic compoundsA3 Beryllium and beryllium compoundsA4 Cadmium and cadmium compoundsA5 Chromium (VI) compoundsA6 Mercury and mercury compoundsA7 Selenium and selenium compoundsA8 Tellurium and tellurium compoundsA9 Thallium and thallium compoundsA10 Inorganic cyanide compoundsA11 Metal carbonylsA12 NapthaleneA13 AnthraceneA14 PhenanthreneA15 Chrysene, benzo (a) anthracene, fluoranthene, benzo (a) pyrene, benzo(K) fluoranthene, indeno (1, 2, 3-cd) pyrene and benzo (ghi) peryleneA16 halogenated compounds of aromatic rings, e.g. polychlorinated biphenyls,polychloroterphenyls and their derivativesA17 Halogenated aromatic compoundsA18 BenzeneA19 Organo-chlorine pesticidesA20 Organo-tin Compounds__________________________________________________________________* The constituents and their concentration limits given in this list are based on BAGA (the NetherlandsEnvironment Protection Agency) List of Hazardous Substances. In order to decide whether a specificmaterial listed above is hazardous or not, following points be taken into consideration:(i)(ii)(iii)(iv)(v)If a component of the materials/waste appears in one of the five risk classes listed above (A, B, C, Dor E) and the concentration of the component is equal to or more than the limit for the relevant risksclass, the material is then classified as hazardous waste.If a chemical compound containing a hazardous constituent is present in the waste, theconcentration limit does not apply to the compound, but only to the hazardous constituent itself.If multiple hazardous constituents from the same class are present in the waste, the concentrationsare added together.If multiple hazardous constituents from different classes are present in the waste, the lowestconcentration limit corresponding to the constituent(s) applies.For substances in water solution, the concentration limit for dry matter must be used. If the drymatter content is less than 0.1% by weight, the concentration limit, reduced by a factor of onethousand, applies to the solution.17
