Hi! We have a building in the process of certification which changed its initial contractor to another company. So, we were planning to add an adjunct to our Construction and Waste Management plan claryfiying the change from one to another and assuming that this second one will continue with the adminitration and responsability of achiving the plan´s objectives. Do you think this is enough to explained what happened? Does anyone have some sample on a similar case? Or can give me some futher suggestion?
Thank you a lot!

maybe document any training on the C&D Waste mgt. plan given to the new contractor and includes the Subs and add that to the end of the C&D plan as an appendix, etc.

I would agree with Debra's approach. Training on the plan should be provided for all personnel on the construction site, and certainly if another contractor was brought in to take over. Alternatively, I would create a new/revised plan specific to the new contractor and make sure you coordinate with them on their process, in case any of it might differ or need to be tailored more specifically to their process over the previous contractor. Make sure any changes/modifications from the original plan (assuming some or all of the subs remained on the project) are properly communicated to personnel on site.

We found it helpful to provide on-site labeling in both english & spanish. This same idea can apply to any written info given out.
