The Disposal Manual is an integral part of the Australian Aquatic Veterinary Emergency Plan (AQUAVETPLAN). 

The safe transport and disposal of carcases, animal products, materials and wastes is an important part of any emergency aquatic animal disease response.

The manual details best Australian practice and provides guidance on the selection of disposal sites and methods for transportation of materials for disposal.
