# 1.0 General

> This Waste Management Plan specifies the procedure for the management,
> control and disposition of items designated as waste material for the
> **Y Project**, **Contract Z**. The following is a list of the
> different categories of materials that will be generated during the
> project:

a.  Recyclable Materials

b.  Waste/Refuse Materials

c.  Reusable Materials

> The procedures for the management, control and disposition of these
> items are described in subsequent sections of this plan. All **Company
> X** subcontractors are required to identify, maintain proper control,
> and provide documentation for the disposition of materials described
> in this plan. Sandia National Laboratories is also responsible for the
> disposition of some waste as described below. The intension of this
> plan is to minimize the amount of waste generated on this project to
> the extent practicable. The goal for this project is to ensure that at
> least 50% (or 75%) of all waste material generated will be recycled,
> re-used, or otherwise diverted from direct landfill disposal. To
> accomplish this goal **Company X** intends to recycle and reuse as
> many types of construction material as possible. Each subcontractor is
> required to follow this plan for the disposition of the waste
> generated by the subcontractor's activity. Waste Management will be an
> agenda item at the weekly construction meeting that **Company X**
> conducts. The waste management activities described in this plan will
> be maintained until substantial completion has been agreed upon by
> Sandia.

## 

# Waste Minimization

**Company X** is dedicated to maintaining a stringent set of guidelines
to control the amount of construction waste and debris disposed in a
landfill. **Company X** will be responsible for communication between
field personnel and subcontractors regarding minimization requirements
during internal weekly construction meetings.

# 2.1 Packaging

All vendors and their suppliers are encouraged to minimize the packaging
for materials and equipment. Packing materials should be selected based
on whether they can be recycled on this project. This request will be
communicated through project meetings, weekly subcontractor meetings,
written correspondence and through the project Waste Management Team
that is made up of contractor representatives.

**2.2 [Housekeeping]{.underline}**

> Housekeeping activities must minimize the amount of waste and maximize
> the amount of recyclable material that can be efficiently gathered at
> the local collection points and minimize the amount of refuse
> materials. **Company X** will assign housekeeping responsibility to an
> on-site **Company X** employee who will oversee and manage the field
> operations with regards to housekeeping and waste management. Any
> issues identified by this person will be discussed during internal
> weekly construction meetings.

3.  **[Maximizing Product Use]{.underline}**

Layout and cutting procedures should be used to minimize the amount of
waste materials. Cut-offs and other scrap materials should be applied on
this project to the extent practicable. This procedure will be
emphasized to all subcontractors during internal weekly construction
meetings.

**2.4 [Materials Management]{.underline}**

All material should be stored in weatherproof containers or otherwise
protected from contamination and deterioration prior to use. Containers
should be opened as needed and work should be sequenced to use materials
efficiently and in a timely fashion. This ensures that the material
meets the specified requirements and that unused or off-spec product
will not become a waste. This procedure will be emphasized to all
subcontractors during internal weekly construction meetings.

# 3.0 Licenses, Permits, Fees, and Taxes

### 

## 3.1 All subcontractors working on the Y Project will be required to maintain and be responsible for all fees, licenses, permits, and taxes needed to comply with Federal, State, and Local Regulations and requirements. 

## 3.2 Each subcontractor will identify haulers or trucking firms they will be using on this project. 

### Material Disposition

> Attachment A provides an estimation of the waste material types and
> quantities to be generated during the construction of **Project Y**.
> Attachment B identifies the disposition pathway for each waste
> material type to be generated during the construction of **Project
> Y**.

#### Recyclable Material

All material for recycling will be placed in designated containers
furnished by Sandia National Laboratories and **Company X**. These
containers will be labeled clearly and according to types of material.
Material must be stored and handled so it is acceptable to the recycler.
**Company X** will ensure containers protect the contents from
environmental contamination.

#### Sandia Furnished Dumpsters

> Sandia will provide individual appropriate containers at the job site
> for local collection of material as indicated in the Material
> Disposition worksheet in Attachment B. The location of the containers
> and pickup/delivery will be coordinated between **Company X** and
> Sandia Pollution Prevention personnel. Sandia will haul the Sandia
> furnished containers and must provide **Company X** with weight
> information for each load. Refer to Sections 4.4 and for 4.5 for
> specific documentation and measurement requirements.

1.  **[Company X Furnished Dumpsters]{.underline}**

> **Company X** will provide individual appropriate containers at the
> job site for local collection of material as indicated in the Material
> Disposition worksheet in Attachment B. The location of the containers
> and pickup/delivery will be coordinated by **Company X**. **Company
> X** will haul the containers to the location designated in the
> Material Disposition Table and will maintain the weight information
> for each load. **Company X** will be responsible for obtaining weight
> information for non-Sandia hauled materials through use of the truck
> scale located at Sandia's Solid Waste Transfer Facility (Building
> 967). Refer to Sections 4.4 and for 4.5 for documentation and
> measurement requirements.

2.  **[Pick-up Frequency]{.underline}**

##### Recycled material containers will be hauled on an as needed basis, with coordination required between **Company X** field staff and Sandia project inspectors. 

##### **4.2 [Empty Containers]{.underline}**

##### 

##### A container that held any chemical or hazardous material, except a substance identified as an acute hazardous waste, is defined as an empty container if both of following criteria are met: 

1.  All material has been removed that can be removed using the
    practices commonly employed to remove material from that type of
    container, such as pumping, pouring, or aspirating, and

2.  No more than 3% by weight of the total capacity of the container
    remains in the container.

Containers with capacity of 25 gallons or less that meet above criteria
may be placed in the appropriate recycling container (i.e., roll-off,
hopper, basket). Empty containers with capacity of greater than 25
gallons shall be managed separate from the recycle material collection
containers. Those containers shall be marked with words "Empty
Container" and staged separate from the recycling collection containers
until they have been inspected by an SNL Hazardous Materials Inspector
(HMI). Following inspection and acceptance they shall be managed
according to the HMI's guidance.

### Any containers that hold an acutely hazardous substance shall be 

### regarded as and managed as a hazardous waste

### 4.3 Non Recyclable or Refuse Materials

> All materials not identified in the material disposition table
> categories will be considered refuse material. It will be the
> responsibility of each **Company X** subcontractor to load and
> transport all material identified as refuse to a landfill designated
> by Sandia. This material may either be demolition debris or
> construction waste. Any permits required by the designated landfill
> site, will be the responsibility of each subcontractor. **Company X**
> will ensure that all procedures are followed. Permits will be valid
> throughout the duration of the project. These items will be tracked
> with the same requirements outlined in section 4.4

### Personal trash such as papers, food containers, beverage cups, etc.,

### shall be bagged, removed from the site, and properly disposed of by each subcontractor

#### 4.4 Documentation

A record of each disposition activity (permits, landfill receipts,
weights, weight tickets, and any other receipts) will be maintained at
the **Company X** Site Office by the Construction Superintendent. A
waste diversion/landfill log (refer to Attachment C) will be maintained
and a waste management progress report worksheet (refer to Attachment D)
will be completed bi-annually and at end of project to track and
summarize the quantities of waste generated by the project. This
documentation will be used to calculate the percent of material
diversion achieved. It is the responsibility of **Company X** to collect
and maintain documentation.

#### 4.5 Measurement of Waste Material

Haulers of refuse and recyclable/reusable materials must provide weight
documentation for all shipments from the project site. Truck scales are
available at Sandia's Solid Waste Transfer Facility (Building 967),
although other scales may be used. **Company X** will make arrangements
to have non-Sandia provided containers weighed. If the empty weight of a
vehicle is known, only its full weight must be determined. If methods
other than weighing are used, the proposed method of generating the
weight must be approved (for example: density times volume estimation).
Refer to Section 4.4 for documentation requirements.
