Code of Practice on the Packaging, Labelling and Storage of Chemical Wastes

Preface

This Code of Practice is a statutory document. It was first published in October 1992 by the Secretary for Planning, Environment and Lands after consultation with the Environmental Pollution Advisory Committee. The purpose of this Code is to provide guidance for complying with the requirements of the Waste Disposal (Chemical Waste)(General) Regulation on the packaging, labelling and storage of chemical waste. Due to the inherent hazardous nature of chemical waste, it is important to pay special care in the handling and storage of these wastes so as to minimise any danger to health or risk of pollution to the environment.

Enquires concerning the chemical waste control scheme, including the Code of Practice and the Regulation, can be addressed to the Regional Offices of the Environmental Protection Department.
