to the landfill—that measurement.

5.7  Criterion AAA
  For paragraph 5.5(b), criterion AAA is the direct measurement of quantities of solid waste received at the landfill during the year using measuring equipment calibrated to a measurement requirement.

5.8  Criterion BBB
  For paragraph 5.5(c), criterion BBB is the estimation of solid waste received at the landfill during the year in accordance with industry estimation practices (such as the use of accepted industry weighbridges, receipts, invoices, other documents or records or population and per‑capita waste generation rates).

5.9  Composition of solid waste
 (1) For paragraph 5.4A(b), the composition of solid waste received at the landfill during the year must be classified by:
 (a) the general waste streams mentioned in subsection 5.10(1); and
 (b) the homogenous waste streams mentioned in subsection 5.10A(1).
 (2) For solid waste received at the landfill during a year, an estimate of tonnage of:
 (a) each general waste stream must be provided in accordance with section 5.10; and
 (b) each homogenous waste stream must be provided in accordance with section 5.10A.
 (3) For the following general and homogenous waste streams there must be a further classification in accordance with section 5.11 showing the waste mix types in each waste stream (expressed as a percentage of the total tonnage of solid waste in the waste stream):
 (a) municipal solid waste class I;
 (ab) municipal solid waste class II;
 (b) commercial and industrial waste;
 (c) construction and demolition waste;
 (d) shredder flock.

5.10  General waste streams
 (1) For paragraph 5.9(1)(a), the general waste streams are as follows:
 (a) municipal solid waste class I;
 (ab) municipal solid waste class II;
 (b) commercial and industrial waste;
 (c) construction and demolition waste.
 (2) Subject to subsection (3), for paragraph 5.9(2)(a), the tonnage of each waste stream mentioned in subsection (1) must be estimated:
 (a) if the operator of the landfill is required, under a law of the State or Territory in which the landfill is located, to collect data on tonnage of waste received at the landfill according to the waste streams mentioned in subsection (1)—by using that data; or
 (b) if paragraph (a) does not apply and the operator of the landfill is able to estimate, in accordance with one of the criteria set out in section 5.5, the tonnage of the waste streams mentioned in subsection (1)—by using that criterion; or
 (c) if paragraphs (a) and (b) do not apply and there is no restriction on the waste streams that can be received at the landfill—by:
 (i) for estimating the tonnage of the municipal solid waste class I stream if the landfill did not receive municipal solid waste class II—using the percentage value specified in columns 2 to 9 of item 1 of
