    Industrial waste-treatment residue

Tasmania N205: the residue must come from an industrial waste treatment or disposal operation.

Residues from industrial waste treatment & disposal, such as treatment sludge, furnace ash & spent filter media.

Is Tasmania N205 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 N205 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 N205 cover?

Residue left by treating or disposing of industrial waste. What matters is the treatment or disposal operation that made it. Coming from an industrial site isn't enough.
