    Fly ash

National reporting N150: fly ash from Australian coal-fired power stations is outside this entry.

Fly ash that does not come from Australian coal-fired power stations. A national reporting category for combustion residue.

Is National N150 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. N150 is a DCCEEW reporting category that groups waste 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 real load.

Enter N150 in the national waste-data category field when reporting under that standard. It isn't a transport certificate. A movement needs the code and record accepted where it starts, plus any required destination consignment authorisation for an interstate controlled load. Apply separate interstate movement controls, because a reporting code gives no state movement classification.

What does National N150 cover?

Fly ash goes here, except fly ash from Australian coal-fired power stations. It means ash carried in combustion gases, not all ash left after burning.
