    Phenols and phenolic compounds

Tasmania M150: chlorophenols are included with other phenols where the catalogue says so.

Wastes holding phenol or its compounds, including chlorophenols from disinfectants & timber treatment.

Is Tasmania M150 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 M150 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 M150 cover?

Phenols and phenolic compounds go here. Chlorophenols are included only where Tasmania's list names them in this group.
