Copper compounds
WA category D190; load type and road-transport rules decide whether a tracking form follows.
ComplyOnSiteIs WA D190 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. D190 is a WA controlled-waste category. Regulation 3 covers industrial, commercial, medical, laboratory and sewage-treatment waste. Domestic waste is outside it. Waste that a Class I, II or III landfill can lawfully accept is excluded, apart from specified exceptions such as asbestos, tyres and clinical waste.
For a tracked load, enter D190 in the controlled-waste category field on the DWER tracking form. DWER issues the number. The authorised carrier or driver records collection and transport, and the receiving facility closes the record. Record the holder, amount, containment and destination. The WA load thresholds and exclusions still apply.
What does WA D190 cover?
Copper compounds fall here. The entry goes by copper compound content, whatever the named compound, process or physical form.
