Is Victoria D340 priority waste?

Yes. D340 is pre-classified priority waste, so no mirror assessment decides its Schedule 5 status. Transactions and transport are both reportable.

Where the duty applies, enter D340 as the Schedule 5 waste code in the Waste Tracker record. The tracking exceptions and designation and household rules still apply.

What does Victoria D340 cover?

Waste containing perchlorate falls here. The entry covers the whole perchlorate group, not just one named compound, process or physical form.

Is perchlorate waste Victoria D340?

CodeWhen it fits
D340The waste holds a perchlorate on Victoria’s list.

Describe the waste itself first, not a chemical inside it. A chemical in soil or another material doesn't by itself decide which description goes on the load record.

What does a Victoria D340 load need before it moves?

For a reportable transaction, the producer creates the Waste Tracker record before dispatch. A transporter or accredited consigner can do it for the producer, who stays accountable and keeps a copy. Arrange the transporter and receiving site first.

Record the code, an accurate description, form, amount, packages, treatment, industry, dispatch date and the parties involved. Add dangerous goods details where they apply. The driver records collection and delivery, and the receiver records receipt. Priority waste sent to landfill, and soil that is priority waste, also need the disposal category that applies.
