    Boron compounds

D310 is a 2015 reporting category; choose a state code for a movement.

Boron compounds such as borax & boric acid, and other borates. A national reporting category added in 2015.

Is National D310 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. D310 is a DCCEEW hazardous-waste reporting category that groups data nationally. It doesn't make every material with this description hazardous. State and territory rules decide the classification, exclusions and movement duties for a load.

Use D310 in the national waste-data category field when reporting under that standard. It isn't a national transport certificate. A movement needs the origin state or territory's accepted code and record, plus any destination consignment authorisation for an interstate controlled load. Apply separate interstate movement controls. A reporting code gives no state movement classification.

What does National D310 cover?

Boron compounds fall here, whatever the named compound, process or physical form.
