    Polychlorinated dibenzofurans

South Australia M170: A congener is one chemical variant in the dibenzofuran group; any variant is included.

Polychlorinated dibenzofurans in South Australia. Any congener, meaning any chemical variant of the group, is included.

Is South Australia M170 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. The SA EPA operational code list and its table of waste requiring tracking are separate, so a code can be on one and not the other. The description doesn't approve a receiving facility or a disposal method.

M170 is in the SA table for waste requiring tracking, within the state or interstate. Enter it with the SA description on the WasteTracker transport certificate, against a matching consignment authorisation. The consignor, transporter and receiver each complete their own part. The SA tracking exemptions still apply.

What does South Australia M170 cover?

Polychlorinated dibenzofurans of any congener go here. The wording takes every variant in the dibenzofuran group, not just named congeners.

Are dibenzofurans South Australia M170?

CodeWhen it fits
M170The waste contains any polychlorinated dibenzofuran congener.

Use the SA EPA operational entry for an SA load. The separate interstate Policy description is kept where its wording differs, but it doesn't replace the operational table or settle tracking on its own.
