General Refuse Clause Samples

General Refuse. 4.7.1 Measures to be implemented to encourage general waste avoidance / minimization include: ⚫ Reducing the number of photocopies to a minimum and copying on both sides of paper for internal documents and external documents where appropriate. ⚫ Preventing over-ordering of office equipment and consumables. ⚫ Procuring energy efficient office equipment and consumables. ⚫ Deploying and servicing recycling containers on site to facilitate collection of recyclables (e.g. aluminum cans, plastic bottles). ⚫ Deploying containers with covers onsite to facilitate the collection of non-recyclables for disposal at landfills.

General Refuse. 5.8.1 General refuse generated on-site should be stored in enclosed bins or compaction units separate from construction and chemical wastes. A reputable waste collector should be employed by the Contractor to remove general refuse from the site, separately from construction and chemical wastes, on a daily or every second day basis to minimize odour, pest and litter impacts. The burning of refuse on construction sites is prohibited by law. 5.8.2 General refuse is generated largely by food service activities on site, so reusable rather than disposable dishware should be used if feasible. Aluminum cans are often recovered from the waste stream by individual collectors if they are segregated or easily accessible. Therefore separate, labelled bins for their deposit should be provided if feasible. Office waste can be reduced through recycling of paper if volume is large enough to warrant collection. Participation in a local collection scheme should be considered if one is available. burning of refuse on construction sites is prohibited by law

General Refuse. Waste generated in offices should be reduced through segregation and collection of recyclables. To promote the recycling of wastes such as used paper, aluminium cans and plastic bottles, it is recommended that recycling bins should be clearly labelled and placed at locations with easy access. For the collection of recyclable materials, they should be collected by licensed collectors.

General Refuse. General refuse should be stored in enclosed bins or compaction units separate from C&D materials and chemical wastes. A reputable waste collector should be employed by the Contractor to remove general from the site, separately from C&D materials and chemical wastes, on a daily basis to minimise odour, pest and litter impacts. The collected general refuse will be disposed of at designated landfill. Clearly labelled recycling bins should be provided on site in order to encourage segregation and recycling of aluminium and plastic wastes, and wastepaper in order to reduce general refuse production. The contractor should carry out an education programme for workers in avoiding, reducing, reusing and recycling of materials generation. Posters and leaflets advising on the use of the bins should also be provided onsite as reminders. The recyclable waste materials should then be collected by reliable waste recycling agents on a regular basis.

General Refuse. The workforce would generate refuse comprising food scraps, waste paper, empty containers, etc. Such refuse will be properly collected on-site and transfer to the nearby refuse collection point. Disposal of refuse at sites other than approved waste transfer or disposal facilities will be prohibited. Effective collection of site wastes will prevent waste materials being blown around by wind, or creating an odour nuisance or pest and vermin problem. Waste storage areas will be well maintained and cleaned regularly. The maximum number of construction workers to be employed is estimated to be about 80 workers. Based on a generation rate of 0.65kg per worker per day, the maximum daily arising of general refuse during the construction period would be approximately 52kg and this waste can be effectively controlled by normal measures. With the implementation of good waste management practices at the site, adverse environmental impacts are not expected to arise from the storage, handling and transportation of workforce wastes. With the implementation of the mitigation measures during the construction phase of the Project, no significant waste management impacts are anticipated. The implementation of the mitigation measures shall be included to the works contracts. Regular site inspections are recommended during construction to ensure the measures are implemented properly.

General Refuse. General refuse should be stored in enclosed bins or compaction units separate from C&D material. A reputable waste collector should be employed by the contractor to remove general refuse from the site, separately from C&D material. Preferably an enclosed and covered area should be provided to reduce the occurrence of 'wind blown' light material.

General Refuse. General refuse comprises general site wastes, such as packaging and container waste from materials and equipment used on the site, and refuse generated by workforce. It is estimated that around 30 workers would be working on site per day during construction phase. Based on a generation rate of 0.65 kg per worker per day, the daily arising of general refuse during the construction period would be about 19.5
