We have a number of non-residential customers who discharge to the sewerage system and would come under the definition of "trade waste" but are considered too small for Wannon Water to require a Trade Waste Agreement, and do not warrant the additional level of administration and monitoring that comes with this. 

Customers who, by definition in Water Law, discharge trade waste, but that:

• Discharge small quantities of trade waste to our sewer and which is of a similar nature to domestic sewage; or
• Operate a business of a type which discharges small quantities of trade waste to our sewer and which is of a similar nature to domestic sewage will be considered Minor Trade Waste (No Pre-Treatment) customers.

We will notify these customers when they have been classified as Minor Trade Waste (No Pre-Treatment) customers and, should they continue to discharge trade waste, they will be taken to have entered into a Minor Trade Waste (No Pre-Treatment) Agreement with Wannon Water arising by customer conduct.

Customer types that we would consider Minor Trade Waste Customers (No Pre-Treatment) are shown in the Minor Trade Waste (No Pre-Treatment) Customer Listing Schedule.
