Waste audit(s) schedule when recertifying a LEED EBOM project

EBOM-2009 MRc6:Solid Waste Management—Waste Stream Audit
posted by  Vanessa Seibert  on 

My client's building obtained the MRc6 (Waste Stream Audit) credit four years ago with our LEED EBOM v2009 certification. We did not receive MRc7 (Waste Mgmt of Ongoing Consumables).

We have always conducted waste audits using weight. We are seeking a more efficient means to calculating waste and recycling; is measuring the volume more efficient?

I know I read about a company doing this, but I can not seem to find who it was, or how it was done.

Separate Trash & Recycling Audits

posted by  Alexis Thompson  on 

If a project has 2 separate haulers (one for trash, and one for recycling), then is it necessary to conduct both audits at the same time?

Aloha, Question 1: We are required to sort & weigh ALL building waste in our audit, but what about small tenant-managed recycling programs?
