If a project sent construction waste, meaning gypsum, concrete and masonry; to another construction site for leveling, is this considered a diversion from landfill? Thank you.

Receipts in foreign language & Mixed waste conversion factors

Dear all, 1) What is the best thing to do if the waste receipts are in a foreign language (Arabic)? The recycling facility/landfill cannot provide any document in English.
