    Copper compounds

ACT guide entry D190; it supports interstate control and does not settle local disposal approval.

Controlled waste for copper compounds, such as copper sulfate & copper chloride from etching & plating baths.

Is ACT D190 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 D190 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 D190 cover?

Copper compounds. The entry goes by copper compound content, whatever the compound, process or physical form.

Are copper compounds always ACT D190?
