South Australia interstate Policy: mercury and mercury compounds
Policy entry D120: use for interstate controlled-waste policy, not as the local operational list.
ComplyOnSiteIs SA interstate policy D120 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. This description comes from South Australia's interstate controlled-waste Policy, kept apart from the current SA EPA operational table. Controlled-waste status also depends on the hazardous-characteristic test and the movement rules.
For a controlled border movement using SA WasteTracker, enter the code and SA description on the transport certificate, against the matching consignment authorisation. In the certificate's waste-code field, enter the accepted operational code. Use the operational entry for the SA tracking-table position, because this Policy entry doesn't set local tracking by itself. The SA approval and record requirements still apply.
What does SA interstate policy D120 cover?
Mercury metal and mercury compounds. The entry covers the element as well as its compounds, whatever the compound or process.
