Contain all construction activities away from site disturbance boundaries to minimize damage to natural areas.
Unless landscape waste is used for fuel, incinerating the waste is not an acceptable method of diversion.
You don’t have to compost or mulch all of your landscape waste. To earn the credit, project teams must demonstrate incremental implementation equivalent to 20% adoption. You could demonstrate this through measuring the volume or weight of landscape waste that is diverted versus the quantity of waste that is sent to a landfill.
Implement plans for construction staging areas, physical barriers, and regular meetings to ensure continued compliance with site disturbance requirements.
Case 1: Greenfield Sites
Regularly remind contractors and subcontractors of the limited site disturbance plan. Orient new contractors as they come to the project during later stages of construction.
Consider instituting an incentive policy for contractors and subcontractors to encourage compliance.
Incorporate physical markers around the site areas that are not to be disturbed. Use signs as well as flags, silt fencing, and hay bales.
Incorporate carefully defined staging areas for construction activities and contained construction entrances to minimize damage to the protected greenfield area.
