Sewage sludge and residue
Tasmania K130: this label varies by catalogue: check sewage sludge, septic material and reticulated-sewer boundaries.
ComplyOnSiteIs Tasmania K130 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. For national-list categories, Tasmania also needs a listed hazardous characteristic, which is presumed unless shown otherwise. Tasmania adds its own controlled wastes too, so read the category and the local rules together.
Put K130 with the specific waste description in the controlled-waste consignment documentation. Record the producer, quantity, form, contaminants, registered transporter and receiver. An incoming interstate controlled load needs EPA Tasmania's consignment authorisation, and another state's certificate doesn't authorise the receiving facility. Follow the Tasmanian handling and transport rules.
What does Tasmania K130 cover?
Sewage sludge and residue go here. Queensland and Tasmania also include nightsoil and sludge from septic tanks or on-site wastewater systems, so the source goes beyond mains sewerage.
