Question #

P4.2 – Corrective Action

Question

Is there evidence of Waste Audit corrective actions implemented in the last five years?

Applicability

Applicable to Office, Healthcare, Enclosed Shopping Centre, Universal and Multi-Unit Residential buildings

Answer

Yes or No

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

Requirements

  1. Reference the Waste Audit Report and demonstrate any corrective actions taken
  2. 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
