Selenium and selenium compounds
ACT guide entry D240; it supports interstate control and does not settle local disposal approval.
Is ACT D240 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. ACT interstate controls apply when the waste matches a NEPM Schedule A List 1 category and has a List 2 hazardous characteristic. The ACT list supplies the printed code, because the NEPM doesn't print A100-style numbers.
For a controlled border movement, enter D240 with the waste description on the waste transport certificate. The producer, transporter and receiver each complete their part. Get ACT EPA's consignment authorisation before bringing controlled waste into the ACT, and record the quantity, form, destination and dangerous goods details. ACT movement exclusions still apply.
What does ACT D240 cover?
Selenium metal and selenium compounds both fall here, whichever compound or process they come from.

Is selenium waste always ACT D240?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| D240 | The waste contains selenium metal or a selenium compound. |
Use the ACT entry for an ACT movement record. A national reporting category with the same number is a different thing and doesn't set the ACT movement duty.
Which wastes take ACT D240?
| Waste | When it’s D240 |
