Is Victoria F100 priority waste?

Yes. F100 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 F100 as the Schedule 5 waste code in the Waste Tracker record. The tracking exceptions and designation and household rules still apply.

What does Victoria F100 cover?

Water-based waste from making, formulating or using paint, lacquer, varnish, ink, dye or pigment falls here. Water is what separates it from solvent-based F120 process waste.

Is water-based paint and ink waste Victoria F100?

CodeWhen it fits
F100The coating-process waste is water-based, not solvent-based.
F120The paint, ink or dye process waste is solvent-based.

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 F100 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.
