Interpretation of Section 5.2
In this Section, “inert waste” means waste—
(a)
that does not undergo any significant physical, chemical or biological transformation, or
(b)
that will not dissolve, burn or otherwise physically or chemically react, biodegrade or adversely affect other matter with which it comes into contact in a way likely to give rise to environmental pollution or harm to human health,
provided that the ability of any potentially polluting material contained in waste, and the ecotoxicology of the leachate is insignificant, and in particular does not endanger the quality either of surface water or groundwater.
