Introduction
This Site Waste Management Plan (SWMP) applies to all activities throughout the project.
All personnel will be made aware of the relevant requirements in this Plan at the initial site
induction and in subsequent tool box talks. The Plan will be available in the site office for
inspection at any time.
All waste from the site is dealt with in accordance the Environmental Protection Act 1986, that
materials will be handled efficiently to minimize wastage and that all waste arising from site will
be managed appropriately.

Each waste stream is identified and appropriate storage and disposal measures provided in line
with Duty of Care;
· Only when all other routes are exhausted will waste be sent to landfill, accompanied by a
Pretreatment Confirmation Form
· Targets for re-use and recycling will be recorded at the start of the project on the Waste Targets
& Monitoring Form and monthly progress towards this monitored;
· A defined waste management area will be set up on site with individual skips provided for
timber, concrete, metal, general and COSHH waste.
· Waste Transfer Notes are correctly completed for each consignment of inert or nonhazardous
waste;
· When any waste is removed the principal contractor must record on the plan—
the identity of the person removing the waste;
the waste carrier registration number of the carrier;
a copy of, or reference to, the written description of the waste
the site that the waste is being taken to and whether the operator of that site holds a permit
or is registered under those Regulations as a waste operation exempt from the need for such a permit
Hazardous Waste Consignment Notes are correctly completed for each consignment of hazardous
waste;
·Waste contractors’ carrier’s licenses and permits are verified with the Environment Agency
(copies to be placed in the Project File)
· The principal contractor will ensure that the site waste management plan is kept:
As often as necessary to ensure that the plan accurately reflects the progress of the project, and
in any event not less than every six months, the principal contractor must—
Additional Duties
Additional duties of the principal contractor
(1) The principal contractor must, so far as is reasonably practicable, ensure co-ordination of the
work and co-operation among contractors at work during the construction phase. This will be
fulfilled by:
· Regular progress meeting with specialist contractors
· Regular Tool box talks and training modules delivered
· Joint review of method statements
· Briefings held every day with specialist contractor supervisors mapping out the operation due today
and near future.
(2) The principal contractor must ensure so far as is reasonably practicable that every worker
carrying out the construction work is provided with—
(b) Any further information and training needed for the particular work to be carried out within
the terms of the site waste management plan.
(3) The principal contractor must make and maintain arrangements that will enable the principal
contractor and the workers engaged in the construction work to co-operate effectively in
promoting and developing measures to ensure that any waste arising on site is managed within
the terms of the site waste management plan and in checking the effectiveness of such measures.
(4) The principal contractor must ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, that waste produced
during construction is re-used, recycled or recovered.
(1) The client must give reasonable directions to any contractor so far as is necessary to enable
the principal contractor to comply with these Regulations.
(1) Both the client and the principal contractor must review, revise and refine the site waste
management plan as necessary, to ensure that any changes in respective roles and responsibilities
are clearly communicated to those affected.
(2) Both the client and the principal contractor must take reasonable steps to ensure that
sufficient site security measures are in place to prevent the illegal disposal of waste from the site.
§ Rather than placing the onus of being responsible for waste management on a site to an
individual, to ensure cooperation among site staff it would be a good idea to divide the site into
several areas and assign such responsibility to a number of individuals, one for each area and,
possibly on a rotational basis to gradually train all relevant members of the project team;
§ Involve waste management contractors at the early stages of the project to discuss
opportunities for recycling and agree high levels of recycling of waste;
§ Set targets for trade contractors in relation to the following parameters: waste diverted from
landfill, waste minimizations recycling rates and waste recovery rates.
§ Set targets for trade contractors in relation recycled content of materials employed;
§ Use clearly labeled containers optimized for segregation of specific waste streams;
§ Use just-in-time delivery (e.g. through a consolidation centre) for materials and avoid double
handling;
§ Set a procedure to collect feedback from trade contractors, visitors etc. for the purpose of
reviewing, revising and refining the plan.
Disposal of Waste
Any waste which cannot be used on site will be recycled or disposed of offsite, via a registered
Carrier to:-
· An exempt site
Any waste disposed of to landfill must be pre-treated first. This is most easily achieved by
recycling at least one of the project’s waste streams. Licensed landfill sites will not accept waste
unless accompanied by a declaration of pre-treatment. A pre-treatment confirmation form fulfils
this requirement and must accompany any waste disposed of to landfill.
Every proposed destination site will be checked to ensure that a valid permit or waste exemption
has been issued by the Environment Agency for the type of waste to be received.
Declaration
We confirm that this Plan has been monitored on a regular basis and revised and updated as
necessary, in accordance with the Site Waste Management Plan Regulations.
