Treated sewage solids and sludge that miss the conditions of the biosolids supply or use permit.

Is Victoria K400-H priority waste?

Yes. K400-H is priority waste. The mirror pair needs a classification assessment, and the record keeps the full -H or -NH suffix. Transactions and transport are both reportable.

Where the duty applies, enter K400-H as the Schedule 5 waste code in the Waste Tracker record. The tracking exceptions and designation and household rules still apply.

What does Victoria K400-H cover?

Treated sewage solids go here when they fail the permit requirements for supplying or using biosolids in Victoria. Compliance with those permit conditions is the dividing fact.

Are biosolids Victoria K400-H or K400-NH?

CodeWhen it fits
K400-HThe treated sewage solids don't meet the biosolids permit conditions for supply or use.
K400-NHThe biosolids meet the permit conditions for supply or use.

Pick the code for the waste itself, not for a chemical in it. A chemical in soil or another material doesn't decide the description on the load record.

What does a Victoria K400-H 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.
