South Australia interstate Policy: oil-and-water mixtures

South Australia interstate Policy J120: use for an emulsion or mixture of water with oil or another hydrocarbon.

Waste mixtures or emulsions of oil or hydrocarbons with water, such as workshop wash water, bilge water & cutting fluid.

Is SA interstate policy J120 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. This description comes from South Australia's interstate controlled-waste Policy, which is kept apart from the current SA EPA operational table. Whether a waste is controlled also depends on the hazardous-characteristic test and the movement rules.

For a controlled border movement in SA WasteTracker, enter the operational code in the waste-code field of the transport certificate, with the SA description, against the matching consignment authorisation. The operational entry sets the SA tracking-table position. This Policy entry doesn't set local tracking by itself. The SA approval and record requirements apply.

What does SA interstate policy J120 cover?

Waste oil mixed or emulsified with water, and mixtures of water with other hydrocarbons. The water separates it from a waste-oil entry that doesn't mention water.

Official wording: Waste oil/water, hydrocarbons/water mixtures or emulsions
Rule or list: Environment Protection (Movement of Controlled Waste) Policy 2014
