    Filter cake with listed-waste residue

Tasmania N190: the filtered solids carry residue from a waste covered by the Tasmanian list.

Filter cake tainted with residues of other wastes on the Tasmanian list, such as dewatered process sludge.

Is Tasmania N190 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 some controlled wastes of its own, so read the category and the local rules together.

Put N190 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. An incoming interstate controlled load needs EPA Tasmania's consignment authorisation, and another state's certificate doesn't give the receiving facility that.

What does Tasmania N190 cover?

Filter cake tainted with residue from listed substances. The residue must come from a waste on Tasmania's list, not just any filtered solid.
