ComplyOnSiteIs South Australia R140 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.
R140 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 R140 cover?
Discarded material from making or preparing pharmaceutical products. The source is manufacture, not later use or disposal as medicine.
