READ AND INITIAL THE FOLLOWING:
_____
All Subcontractors shall comply with the project's Construction Waste Management (CWM) Plan
_____ All Subcontractor responsible parties shall sign the CWM Plan Acknowledgment Sheet
_____This project shall generate the least amount of waste possible by planning and ordering carefully,
following proper storage and handling procedures to reduce broken and damaged materials and reusing
materials whenever possible. The majority of the waste that is generated on this jobsite will be diverted from
the landfill and recycled for other use.
_____ Waste prevention and recycling activities will be discussed at the beginning of weekly subcontractor
meetings. As each new subcontractor comes on-site, the Person in Responsible Charge will present him/her
with a copy of the CWM Plan and provide a tour of the jobsite to identify materials to be salvaged and the
procedures for handling jobsite debris. All Subcontractors will acknowledge in writing that they have read
and will abide by the CWM Plan. (See page 11 for Subcontractor Acknowledgment Sheet). The CWM
Plan will be posted at the jobsite trailer and will be accessible to field inspector at all inspections.
_____ Salvage: Excess materials that cannot be used in the project, nor returned to the vendor, will be offered
to site workers, the owner, or donated to charity if feasible.
_____The Diversion Planning Worksheet identifies the waste materials that will be generated on this project,
the diversion strategy for each waste type and the anticipated diversion rate. (PROJECT
MANAGER/GENERAL CONTRACTOR SHALL COMPLETE WORKSHEET (SEE PAGE 10) PRIOR TO
ISSUE OF BUILDING PERMIT).
Revised 020812
____ Tahoe Truckee Sierra Disposal will provide a commingled drop box at the jobsite for most of the
construction waste. These commingled drop boxes will be taken to the Eastern Regional Landfill Materials
Recovery Facility located at 900 Cabin Creek Road, Truckee. The average diversion rate for commingled
waste will be 35%. As site conditions permit, additional drop boxes will be used for particular phases of
construction (e.g., concrete and wood waste) to ensure the highest waste diversion rate possible.
_____ In the event that the waste diversion rate achievable via the strategy described above, is projected to be
lower than what is required, then a strategy of source-separated waste diversion and/or waste stream
reduction will be implemented. Source separated waste refers to jobsite waste that is not commingled but is
instead allocated to a debris box designated for a single material type, such as clean wood or metal.
Notes:
1. Waste stream reduction refers to efforts taken by the builder to reduce the amount of waste generated by the project to
below four (4) pounds per square foot of building area.
2. When using waste stream reduction measures, the gross weight of the product is subtracted from a base weight of four (4)
pounds per square foot of building area. This reduction is considered additional diversion and can be used in the waste
reduction percentage calculations.
_____ Using the enclosed Diversion Calculation Sheet (page 12) the Person in Responsible Charge will track
and calculate the quantity (in tons) of all waste leaving the project and calculate the waste diversion rate for the
project.
 The Person in Responsible Charge will create monthly diversion reports on gross weight hauled
and the waste diversion rate being achieved on the project.
 The Person in Responsible Charge will track separately the gross weights and diversion rates for
commingled debris and for each source-separated waste stream leaving the project.
_____ In the event that Subcontractors furnish their own debris boxes as part of their scope of work, such
Subcontractors shall not be excluded from complying with the CWM Plan and will provide weight and waste
diversion data for their debris boxes to the Person in Responsible Charge.
_____ In the event that site use constraints (such as limited space) restrict the number of debris boxes that can
be used for collection of designated waste the Person in Responsible Charge will, as deemed appropriate,
allocate specific areas onsite where individual material types are to be consolidated. These collection points
are not to be contaminated with non-designated waste types.
_____ I am aware of the additional resources available to me as included at the end of this document.

Town of Truckee Construction Waste Management Plan
Sample Diversion Weights
The Town of Truckee holds a franchise agreement with Tahoe Truckee Sierra Disposal (TTSD) to provide
trash hauling and processing services within the Town.
TTSD operates the Eastern Regional Landfill
Materials Recovery Facility (ERL) where construction waste is sorted and processed. Items pulled for
recycling on the construction material sort line include: clean lumber, pallets, metal, copper wire and
pipe, aluminum doors and window frames, cardboard, concrete, asphalt, bottles and cans, masonry,
PVC, clean drywall. Items not pulled for recycling include: painted and treated lumber, carpet/carpet pad,
roofing material, insulation, bathroom and kitchen fixtures, tile, insulation, acoustic ceiling tile.
An
average 35% diversion is achieved on the construction material sort line. The 35% diversion rate is being
applied here to all mixed construction loads self-hauled and serviced on-site by TTSD. Obtaining
maximum material diversion is achieved through source separating materials and self-hauling to ERL.
Large on-site debris boxes are also available for onsite source separated material.
SELF-HAUL C&D: In order to maximize diversion, materials should be separated on the job site
and hauled to the Eastern Regional Landfill Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). Volumes can then
be weighed at the gate and diversion percentage applied as follows:
•
Inert waste (site clearing: rock, soil, green waste only) = 100% diversion; cost for disposal = $5.90
per cu. yard.
•
Metal (including copper and aluminum) = 100% diversion; cost for disposal = $9.00 per cu. yard.
•
Concrete and Asphalt with or without rebar: = 100% diversion; cost for disposal = $5.90 per cu.
yard.
•
Cardboard only: 100% diversion; free to drop-off if separated.
•
Separated Recycling: i.e. blue bag items (bottles and cans, paper); 100% diversion; free to drop-off
if separated properly.
•
Mixed C&D Waste - 35% diversion***; Cost for disposal = $77.50 per ton or $9.00 per cu yard.
*** Please keep in mind that the 35% diversion rate is for an average mixed load. If a load is
dominated by items not picked for recycling on the construction waste line than the diversion rate
will not apply. See the top of the page for what is pulled for recycling and what materials are not
pulled for recycling.
ON-SITE C&D: Small Project Collection.
Volumes are not weighed; estimated weights only based on volume of container used. Multiplier for
estimates: 232 lbs per cubic yard. For small projects dumpsters are available in the following volume
sizes: 3 yard, 4 yard and 6 yard. Dumpsters are for mixed construction waste only. Due to current
methods of collection dumpsters are not available for single source material type at this time. Flat rates
apply depending on container size and service rate. Diversion rate for mixed construction waste is
currently 35%.
15
ON-SITE C&D: Large Project Collection.
TTSD will provide roll off containers at a minimum of 20 yards for source separated clean wood, scrap
metal, or clean gypsum and guarantee 100% diversion of non contaminated loads. Use the chart
provided below to estimate weights of 20 and 30 yard source separated roll offs.
TTSD provides 10 yard Rock Boxes for the onsite collection of asphalt and concrete. Use the chart
provided below to estimate weights.
NOTE: If ordering a 20 yard, 30 yard or Rock Box for recycling a specific material please let the office
assistant know when ordering the service. The office assistant will note which material type is to be
placed in the roll off on the invoice and then the appropriate diversion rates can be applied as provided in
the table below.

Construction and Demolition (C&D) Waste Management
FACT SHEET – October 2010
Town of Truckee
Tahoe Truckee Sierra Disposal Co., Inc.
Mixed construction and demolition waste includes all of the following material types: painted and
treated lumber, clean lumber, metal, copper, aluminum, masonry, tile, dry wall, mixed recyclables (i.e.
bottles and cans), fixtures, roofing materials, insulation, cardboard, concrete, asphalt, PVC, site clearing
debris, green waste.
•
Items pulled for recycling on C&D line: clean lumber, pallets, metal, copper wire and pipe,
aluminum doors and window frames, cardboard, concrete, asphalt, bottles and cans, masonry,
PVC, clean drywall.
•
Items not pulled for recycling on C&D line: painted and treated lumber, carpet, roofing material,
insulation, bathroom and kitchen fixtures, tile.
SELF-HAUL C&D: In order to maximize diversion, materials should be separated on the job site
and hauled to the Materials Recovery Facility (MRF-Eastern Regional Landfill). Volumes can then
be weighed at the gate and diversion percentage can be applied as follows:
•
Inert waste (site clearing: rock, soil, green waste only) = 100% diversion; cost for disposal = $5.90
per cu. yard.
•
Metal (including copper and aluminum) = 100% diversion; cost for disposal = $5.90 $9.00 per cu.
yard.
•
Concrete and Asphalt with or without rebar: = 100% diversion; cost for disposal = $5.90 per cu.
yard.
•
Cardboard only: 100% diversion; free to drop-off.
•
Mixed recyclables Separate at Buy Back: i.e. blue bag items (bottles and cans, paper); 100%
diversion; free to drop-off.
• Mixed C&D Waste - 35% diversion (a general diversion number from running mixed loads over
C&D sort line). Cost for disposal = $77.50 per ton or $9.00 per cu yard.
*** Please keep in mind that the 35% diversion rate is for an average mixed load. If a load is dominated
by items not picked for recycling than the diversion rate will not apply. See the top of the page for what is
accepted for recycling and what materials are not accepted for recycling.
ON-SITE C&D: Small Project Collection. Volumes are not weighed; estimated weights only based on
volume of container used. Multiplier for estimates: 232 lbs per cubic yard. For small projects dumpsters
are available in the following volume sizes: 3 yard, 4 yard and 6 yard. Dumpsters are for mixed C&D
waste only. Due to current methods of collection dumpsters are not available for single source material
type at this time. Flat rates apply depending on container size and service rate (unless weight is over
threshold for container size then an overage fee may apply). Because mixed C&D is processed on a sort
line it can be assumed that the average diversion rate for the line can be applied. Diversion rate is
currently 35%.
ON-SITE C&D: Large Project Collection.
Trash hauler will provide roll off containers at a minimum of 20 yards for segregated material type and
guarantee diversion. Example: Contractor can order a 20 yard roll-off container and use it solely for a
17
particular material type i.e. site clearing debris or clean wood (see list of categories above to maximize
diversion opportunities). The hauler will then pick up the container on site and take it to the inert
processing (or appropriate area) at the transfer station. In this case, 100% diversion rate could be
applied to material load using the 232 lbs multiplier by the volume of roll-off.
Any material collected in containers smaller than 20 yards is commingled and treated as mixed C&D. If
ordering a roll off for recycling a specific material please let the office assistant know when ordering the
service. The office assistant will note which material type is to be placed in the roll off on the invoice and
then the appropriate diversion rates can be applied.
*** When ordering ON-SITE dumpsters and roll offs flat rates apply regardless of the materials collected.
Rates are charged by the size of dumpster/roll-off ordered and by the frequency of service. The
dumpsters/roll-offs are not charged by actual weight. Any overage on the dumpsters/roll-off are subject to
an additional service charge.
