DEADF, Finfish-farm mortalities.
Tasmania
Finfish-farm mortalities
Tasmania DEADF: this local code is for mortalities from finfish farming, rather than general animal residue.
ComplyOnSiteIs Tasmania DEADF hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. For national-list categories, Tasmania also needs a listed hazardous characteristic, not just the waste description. The characteristic is presumed unless shown otherwise. Tasmania adds its own controlled wastes too, so read the category and the local rules together.
Where controlled waste needs movement documentation, enter DEADF with the specific waste description in the controlled-waste consignment documentation. Record the producer, quantity, form, contaminants, registered transporter and receiver. The Tasmanian handling and transport rules apply.
A controlled load coming in from another state needs EPA Tasmania's consignment authorisation. Another state's certificate doesn't authorise the receiving facility.
What does Tasmania DEADF cover?
Fish that die or are killed during finfish farming fall here as farm mortalities. The entry is tied to farming, so it doesn't take discarded fish from processing, retail or other sources.
