Tasmania M250: surfactants reduce surface tension; check whether the entry requires mainly organic constituents.
ComplyOnSiteIs Tasmania M250 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 M250 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 M250 cover?
Surfactants made mostly of organic constituents go here, including detergent waste that fits. The main constituents are organic, but the material may also hold metals or inorganic constituents.
