10  Requirements for new waste diversion activities
 (1) An activity is a new waste diversion activity if:
 (a) the requirements set out in subsections (2) and (3) are met; and
 (b) the activity is not a sub‑activity in an aggregated waste diversion activity.
 (2) The activity must involve eligible organic material being:
 (a) separated at the point of generation from a single waste stream; and
 (b) diverted from landfill; and
 (c) processed at a waste treatment facility or unit using eligible waste treatment technology.
 (3) During the relevant 24‑month period for the project, material consisting of the same waste mix type or types as the eligible organic material diverted from landfill by the activity must have been:
 (a) generated in the activity area; and
 (b) primarily disposed of in landfill.
 (4) In determining whether the requirement in paragraph (3)(b) is met, disregard any trial waste diversion activity that was undertaken by the project proponent in the activity area during the relevant 24‑month period for the project if the trial waste diversion activity ceased 12 months or more before the end of that 24‑month period.
Note: If a trial waste diversion activity ceased less than 12 months before the end of the 24‑month period, an activity that expands the trial waste diversion activity may be an expansion waste diversion activity under section 11.
