Waste isocyanates, reactive chemicals used in polyurethane foam, paints & adhesives, which can cause asthma.

Is SA interstate policy M220 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 M220 cover?

Isocyanate compounds used in products such as polyurethane foams, paints and glues. The code isn't limited to one product form.
