Latest TSA Best Practice Guidelines

1 March 2019

Tyre Stewardship Australia has recently published an update to the Best Practice Guidelines on Tyre Storage and Fire and Emergency Preparedness.

This updated document serves to provide tyre collectors and recyclers with a roadmap to comply with the regulations and requirements relevant to tyre storage and to assist in the improvement of methods for storage and fire and emergency preparation.

Not only does the document present best practice methods to help businesses reduce risks and be best prepared for fire/emergencies, but it also clearly describes the regulatory requirements for each Australian jurisdiction.  It lists the relevant updated regulations and includes references to the latest updates by the Victorian EPA relating to Combustible Waste.

The Best Practice Guidelines are available to download here.
