Hazard-treated timber and sawdust

Victoria K310-H: the timber or sawdust has been treated with a hazardous substance.

Timber and sawdust treated with hazardous substances, such as preservatives. Untreated timber goes under K310-NH.

Is Victoria K310-H priority waste?

Yes. K310-H is priority waste. The mirror pair needs a classification assessment, and the record keeps the full -H or -NH suffix.

K310-H isn't reportable for transactions or transport, so Schedule 5 doesn't require a Waste Tracker record. Pass the classification and an accurate description to a lawful receiver. Dangerous goods duties can apply separately. For a reportable transaction, enter K310-H in Waste Tracker's Schedule 5 waste-code field. The designation and household rules and tracking exceptions still apply.

What does Victoria K310-H cover?

Timber treated with hazardous substances goes here, sawdust included. Treatment is the dividing fact, so sawdust from the same treated timber stays in this description.
