Hazardous waste will be more easily transformed into safe product that can be sold or reused rather than sent to landfill under regulations announced by the Brumby Labor Government today. The new regulations make Victoria a national leader in defining the uses of hazardous waste by allowing waste that would previously have gone into landfill to instead be transformed by new technologies into safe material that in many cases will be able to be sold for new purposes.
