sec.8The concept of disposal

### sec.8 The concept of disposal This Act commonly uses the expression disposal in relation to waste. In practical terms, a primary outcome arising from the implementation of this Act’s provisions is intended to be a reduction in the amount of waste that permanently, or at least indefinitely, effectively becomes incorporated into land, commonly referred to as becoming landfill. Accordingly, in this Act, a reference to disposal in relation to waste may ordinarily be taken to mean the depositing of the waste, other than on a temporary or short term basis, into or onto land. Subsection (3) does not limit what disposal may be taken to mean in an appropriate context. (sec.8-ssec.1) This Act commonly uses the expression disposal in relation to waste.
