S6.39	S5.7	Waste reduction is best achieved at the planning and design stage, as well as by ensuring the implementation of good site practices. Recommendations to achieve waste reduction include: · segregation and storage of different types of waste in different containers, skips or stockpiles to enhance reuse or recycling of materials and their proper disposal; · to encourage collection of aluminium cans by individual collectors, separate labelled bins shall be provided to segregate this waste from other general refuse generated by the work force; · any unused chemicals or those with remaining functional capacity shall be recycled; · use of reusable non-timber formwork to reduce the amount of C&D material; · prior to disposal of C&D waste, it is recommended that wood, steel and other metals shall be separated for re-use and / or recycling to minimise the quantity of waste to be disposed of to landfill; · proper storage and site practices to minimise the potential for damage or contamination of construction materials; and · plan and stock construction materials carefully to minimize amount of waste generated and avoid unnecessary generation of waste.

S 6.41 - S.6.43	S.5.9 – 5.11	Construction and Demolition (C&D) Waste · Careful design, planning and good site management can minimize over-ordering and generation of waste materials such as concrete, mortar and cement grouts. The design of formwork should maximize the use of standard wooden panels so that high reuse levels can be achieved. Alternatives such as steel formwork or plastic facing should be considered to increase the potential for reuse. · The contractor should use as much of the C&D material as possible on-site. Proper segregation of waste types on site will increase the feasibility of certain components of the waste stream by recycling contractors. · Inert C&D material (public fill) are directed to reclamation areas, where they have the added benefit of offsetting the need for removal of materials from borrow areas for reclamation purposes, or to an approved public filling area (PFA).

S.6.49 – S.6.50	S.5.18 – 5.19	General Refuse · General refuse should be stored in enclosed bins or compaction units separate from C&D and chemical wastes. A reputable waste collector should be employed by the contractor to remove general refuse from the site, separately from C&D and chemical wastes, on a daily or every second day basis to minimize odour, pest and litter impacts. · Office waste can be reduced through recycling of paper if volumes are large enough to warrant collection. Participation in a local collection scheme should be considered if one is available.
