Workplace Recycling Regulations
What are they? The Workplace Recycling Regulations are a piece of new legislation passed by the Welsh Government that will make it a legal responsibility
Although no longer a legal requirement, SWMPs are still a necessity for obtaining the Wst 01 BREEAM Credit. They can also be required as conditions for planning applications. As a comprehensive forecast, monitoring, and review tool, SWMPs/SRMPs are an integral part of sustainable construction management.
Site Resource Management Plans differ from Site Waste Management Plans as they focus not just on waste, but also on resources. They ensure materials utilised within the project are sustainably sourced and monitor the carbon impacts of developments. They will satisfy both Wst 01.1 Construction Resource Efficiency and Wst 01.2 Diversion from Landfill.
Here at WPSCC, we are experts in waste. Using our exclusive, self-developed site resource management software, SitePlan, we have been producing SWMPs/SRMPs for more than a decade. With a range of cost-effective, flexible process options available, we can always find a methodology to suit your individual needs.
We offer a choice of methodologies:
> Full Management – We do everything!! We will collect data monthly, compile waste and delivery notes, carry out all the Duty of Care obligations and more. We will also wrap everything up at project end (Review) and provide you with all you need to satisfy the BREEAM requirements.
> Partial Management – A hybrid partnership between us and you, we will manage aspects of the SWMP/ SRMP, whilst you handle others.
> SitePlan – We set you up and provide training on SitePlan, and off you go. Flexible, cost-effective Plans are available, either on a project-by-project basis, or as an annual licence fee.
Our award-winning team are on hand to offer support for your project throughout, and are driven to constantly learn and innovate, bringing a uniquely tailored, flexible, and dynamic solution for your BREEAM needs.
As of 2013, SWMPs are no longer a legal requirement for new construction projects. However, they are still requirements for BREEAM and may be asked for by Local Authorities or Clients. Contractors often also view them as an environmentally friendly initiative, that demonstrates best practice.
SitePlan is an online tool that generates SWMPs/SRMPs using data input by either ourselves or you, the client. It will forecast waste arisings, provide opportunities for waste minimisation, and report waste and carbon generation, all in one place. It will also automatically calculate BREEAM credits based on floor area and waste volumes. At the end of a project the Review process analyses performance against targets in terms of both resource and cost.
