    Clinical and related waste

SA operational entry R100 is included in the current WasteTracker scope.

Clinical & related waste in South Australia, from hospitals, clinics & surgeries, such as sharps, dressings & body fluids.

Is South Australia R100 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. This is the SA EPA operational description. The operational code list and the table of waste requiring tracking are separate, so a code can be in the first and not the second. The description doesn't approve a receiving facility or a disposal method.

R100 is in the SA table of 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 part. The SA tracking exemptions still apply.

What does South Australia R100 cover?

Clinical and related wastes. The SA interstate list's clinical-waste definition decides which healthcare streams count as related. The label alone names no material or treatment.

Is clinical waste South Australia R100 or another code?

CodeWhen it fits
R100The waste meets South Australia’s clinical or related-waste description.

Use the 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 set tracking on its own.
