Explosive waste
Tasmania E120: use only where another explosives law does not already govern the material.
ComplyOnSiteIs Tasmania E120 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 E120 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 E120 cover?
Explosive waste falls here, unless separate explosives legislation named in the list governs it. That carve-out is part of the scope.
