    Biosolids meeting permit conditions

Victoria K400-NH: use where biosolids satisfy the applicable supply-or-use permit conditions.

Treated sewage solids that meet the conditions of the biosolids supply or use permit, so they can be spread on land.

Is Victoria K400-NH priority waste?

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

K400-NH 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 K400-NH in Waste Tracker's Schedule 5 waste-code field. The designation and household rules and tracking exceptions still apply.

What does Victoria K400-NH cover?

Biosolids go here when they comply with the permit requirements for their supply or use in Victoria. Solids that fail those requirements fall outside this entry.
