What are the management options for the different types of sanitary wastes?
A. These wastes may be disposed of to landfill, unless the local government does not permit this type of disposal. If the facility chooses, these wastes may also be treated as for clinical waste (or cytotoxic waste where the waste has been generated by a person receiving cytotoxic drug treatment). Design requirements for the respective storage containers are set out in Schedule 4 of the Environmental Protection (Waste Management) Regulation 2000. Treatment and disposal process requirements are set out in Schedule 5.
