    Arsenic and arsenic compounds

ACT guide entry D130; it supports interstate control and does not settle local disposal approval.

Controlled waste for arsenic & its compounds, a toxic metalloid used in timber treatment & pesticides.

Is ACT D130 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. For ACT interstate controls, the waste must match a NEPM Schedule A List 1 category and have a List 2 hazardous characteristic. The ACT list supplies the printed code, and the NEPM itself doesn't print these A100-style numbers.

For a controlled border movement, put D130 with the waste description on the waste transport certificate. The producer, transporter and receiver complete their parts. Get ACT EPA's consignment authorisation before bringing controlled waste into the ACT, and record the quantity, form, destination and any dangerous goods details. The ACT movement exclusions still apply.

What does ACT D130 cover?

Elemental arsenic and arsenic compounds. The entry covers the element as well as its compounds, whatever the compound or process.

Is arsenic waste always ACT D130?

CodeWhen it fits
D130The waste holds elemental arsenic or an arsenic compound on the ACT list.

Use the ACT list's entry for an ACT movement record. A national reporting category with the same number serves a different purpose and doesn't create the ACT movement duty.
