A Waste management policy is subordinate legislation made under the Environment Protection Act 1970, and expresses in law the Victorian community’s expectations in relation to the handling and management of waste. The Waste management policy (Ships Ballast Water) (PDF 159KB) provides a framework in which a flexible set of tools have been developed for the shipping industry to achieve desired domestic ballast water management outcomes. In Victoria, ballast water is defined as an industrial waste.
