Is Victoria T340 priority waste?

Yes. T340 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 T340 as the Schedule 5 waste code in the Waste Tracker record. The tracking exceptions and designation and household rules still apply.

What does Victoria T340 cover?

Waste under quarantine or biosecurity controls. The wording joins both sets of rules and names no particular material.

Is quarantine waste Victoria T340?

CodeWhen it fits
T340The material is discarded as quarantine or biosecurity waste.

Name the waste itself before choosing a code for a constituent. A chemical in soil or another material doesn't by itself settle which description goes on the load record.

What does a Victoria T340 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 this 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.
