Accordingly, it has to be assessed in Step P4a whether the waste displays hazardous properties due to the remaining residues and, in Step 4b, whether the packaging material itself displays hazardous properties. Calculations whether threshold limits defined in Annex III to the WFD, based on hazard statement codes, are exceeded, should be based on the weight of the waste as it is when the classification of the waste is undertaken (i.e. a comparison would be made between the amount of contained hazardous substances against the total weight of the nominally empty packaging plus the leftover residue). If hazardous properties can be related to the residue or to the packaging material itself, entry 15 01 10* will apply. Otherwise a non-hazardous entry according to the packaging's material needs to be assigned (codes 15 01 01 to 15 01 09) (8).
