Question #

Applicability
All asset classes
Owner/landlord occupied building
Tenant occupied building – waste managed by the owner/landlord
Answer & Scoring
- Yes = 3 points
- No = 0 points
- Not applicable – Tenant occupied building: Waste managed by the tenant = 0/0
Max of 3 points
Requirements
- Reference the Waste Audit Report and demonstrate any corrective actions taken
- Explain why recommended actions were not addressed, with implementation plan/schedule if actions were deferred due to cost constraints
Documentation
- Narrative with photos or correspondence showing corrective actions taken
Suggested Lead
In-house
Value
- Building off P4.0a – Waste Audit, improve a building’s waste management by implementing corrective actions recommended in the waste audit
- Improved waste management can lead to an overall reduction of waste generated, an increase in waste being diverted from landfills, and additional waste streams being established at the building
Description
Improving waste management practices requires knowledge regarding the nature and mass of waste collected on-site. Regular auditing of the waste generated on a site is therefore recommended to gain a more accurate understanding of the volume of waste generated, size of different waste streams and where waste is taken once it leaves the building site.
