2 Raytheon NE Resource Management (RM) Program Background First complete baseline established in 1998 which included trash. In late 1990`s Raytheon New England sites formed first solid waste team. First Raytheon solid waste management goals established in Resource Management concept presented to Raytheon by MA WasteCap in Raytheon IDS NE partnered with EPA WasteWise program in Raytheon commenced preparation of RM Request for Proposal in conjunction with Tellus Institute under EPA WasteWise funded pilot project in Solid waste team name changed to RM team in Raytheon bids RM for NE sites in Initial agreement signed in early New agreement signed 2010 and 2014 Raytheon Resource Management (RM) Program The successful RM Supplier will provide basic container service, hauling, and processing/marketing/disposal (which may be sub-contracted), in addition to value-added services that improve Raytheon s resource efficiency (e.g., waste reduction, reuse, increased recycling) beyond traditional waste and recycling hauling. Goal = Get to the Next Waste Management Level What is Raytheon s RM Program? Raytheon s resource management program is a strategy focused on preventing the generation of waste; and where this is not possible, to recycle or reuse these materials. Disposal of waste in landfill or by incineration is the least preferred option. The initial RM program focused only on core programs which were identified in Request For Proposal (RFP). The 2010 agreement expanded the program to include noncore programs such as electronic scrap (e-scrap) & metal scrap from production RM is Truly a Partnership The RFP Process Raytheon Resource Management (RM) Program wishes to solicit proposals for Resource Management ( RM ) services to help eliminate, reduce, re-use, recycle and (as a last resort) dispose of all nonhazardous waste materials generated at ten (10) Raytheon Company facilities. The successful RM Supplier will provide basic container service, hauling, and processing/marketing/disposal (which may be subcontracted), in addition to value-added services that improve Raytheon s resource efficiency (e.g., waste reduction, reuse, increased recycling) beyond traditional waste and recycling hauling, the successful Supplier must provide improved reporting, billing, waste tracking, and analytical services for waste disposal and recycling. Raytheon s intent is to emphasize and reward proven performance in the above areas. Mutual Alignment with RM Partner 2

Serving Up Sustainability Emphasized reusable dining ware Replaced polystyrene and plastic take out containers and utensils with compostable alternatives Eliminated Polystyrene From Dining Centers 1/27/ Precrusher Installed precrusher at Andover to consolidate recycling of wood & construction & demolition (C&D) debris Eliminated 5 open top dumpsters Reduces carbon footprint by eliminating 115 waste pickups/year Annual cost savings of $43K Considered Best Management Practice (BMP) for Storm Water Management Innovation Important 3

5 Typical Container Examples Dining Centers Rest Rooms Common Areas Desk Side 1/27/ Dining Center Labeling 5/7/2015 1/27/ Zero Waste Definition Zero Waste is a goal that is both pragmatic and visionary, to guide people to emulate sustainable natural cycles, where all discarded materials are resources for others to use. Zero Waste means designing and managing products and processes to reduce the volume and toxicity of waste and materials, conserve and recover all resources, and not burn or bury them. Implementing Zero Waste will eliminate all discharges to land, water or air that may be a threat to planetary, human, animal or plant health. Businesses and communities that achieve over 90% diversion of waste from landfills and incinerators are considered to be successful in achieving Zero Waste, or darn close.
