    Organochlorine pesticides

WA category H130; load type and road-transport rules decide whether a tracking form follows.

Western Australian waste code for organochlorine pesticides, long-lived chlorinated chemicals used on crops & against termites.

Is WA H130 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. H130 is a WA controlled-waste category. Regulation 3 covers industrial, commercial, medical, laboratory and sewage-treatment waste, but not domestic waste. Waste lawfully accepted at a Class I, II or III landfill is excluded, except for specified items including asbestos, tyres and clinical waste.

For a tracked load, enter H130 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. Road tracking in WA follows the WA load thresholds and exclusions.
