Centralized Storage Area

Depending on the size of the individual buildings, the reviewers may require you to provide designated storage areas with individual buildings that generate a large volume of waste. A main guest lodge with kitchen and dining facilities, for example, would probably need to have its own designated storage area. For other buildings the most important thing is to provide a narrative describing the waste management plan that explains how recyclables are being separated from other waste, collected on site, stored, and then where they go.

Since guest rooms or small outbuildings are probably maintained by housekeeping staff, it might be acceptable to have two labeled waste bins in a room - one for all recyclables, and one for other landfill trash. The narrative will need to describe who collects these, how often, where they are taken, how they are sorted and stored, etc.

Hi David,

Which size would be this? We have a similar situation as Kenneth's - 8 residential towers on a campus, a central restaurant buildings that serves these towers, and a central gym also. I'm wondering now if our resturant will need oits own designated storage area...

Thanks
