Separation of waste
10 Separation of waste
This regulation applies to regulated e‑waste collected or received by an e‑waste service provider that is mixed with other waste.
The e‑waste service provider must separate the regulated e‑waste from the other waste.
Penalty for this subregulation: a fine of $10 000.
It is a defence to a charge of an offence under subregulation (2) to prove that the e‑waste service provider —
took reasonable steps to avoid the commission of the offence; or
did not know, and could not reasonably have known, that the regulated e‑waste was mixed with the other waste.
In determining what constitutes reasonable steps for the purposes of subregulation (3)(a), it is relevant to take into account the management standard.
