Author: M.Graney & Sons Ltd. 1. Project Title: Underpinning, Lower ground floor Extension and Refurbishment Works. 2. Location: 21 Old Church Street, London, SW3 5DL. 3. Nature of Project: The works comprise of underpinning the existing foundations, extending the lower ground floor to incorporate the entire garden/boundary foot print and a total refurbishment of the internal structure known as 21 Old Church Street SW3 5DL. 4. Project Aim: At 21 Old Church Street we are committed to implement the project environmental plan and the SWMP so that it is effective, accurate and economical and that the procedures put into place are working and are maintained. 5. Management: The principle contractor M. Graney & Sons Ltd is responsible for the instruction of workers, implementation and overseeing of the SWMP. The principle contractor will monitor the effectiveness and accuracy during routine site visits. Independent audits will also be completed by our safety consultant via site inspections. Copies of these reports are available on request for monitoring purposes only. Position Name Contact Details Client Hassan Salamony 07768517033 Principle Contractor M.

6. Distribution: The principle contractor shall distribute copies of this plan to the CDM Co-ordinator, Client, Site Manager and each subcontractor where relevant applicable. This will be undertaken every time the plan is updated. 7. Instruction and Training: The principle contractor will provide on-site briefings via inductions, of appropriate separation, handling, recycling, reuse and return methods to be used by all parties and at appropriate stages of the project where applicable. Toolbox talks will be carried out regularly on waste issues and all subcontractors will be expected to attend. This will ensure that everyone feels that they are included and that their participation is meaningful. 8. Waste Management on Site: Surplus or waste materials arise from either the materials which are imported to the site or from those generated on the site. Imported materials are those which are brought to the project for inclusion into the permanent works. Generated materials are those, which exist on the project such as topsoil, sub-soil, trees and materials from demolition works etc. However, there are other considerations to waste management such as waste reduction, segregation of waste, disposal of waste, financial impacts of waste disposal and recording, monitoring, education and reviewing. This plan outlines the procedures that have been put in to place and demonstrate how they benefit the environment, how we can measure the effects and how these procedures and practices are sustainable.

9. Ways of Minimising Waste: At 21 Old Church Street we will from a very early stage look at how we can minimise the waste produced, thereby reducing the amount of waste to be removed from the project. All Trade Contractors, Design Team and Suppliers will all be encouraged to look at ways to minimise the amount of waste produced at the work face. Action Responsibility Date Action Commenced Plasterboard sheets are Design Team made to a standard size to suit the wall heights and to reduce the amount of off cuts/waste Substructure When Principle Contractor the bases are poured with concrete, other bases will be excavated so that any surplus concrete can be utilised as blinding Materials which arrive Site Foreman on pallets are to be Principle Contractor unloaded and the pallets stored neatly and removed from site when there number is sufficient enough to make collection economical. Apply all identified environmental risks and actions identified in the Operatives Site Manager/ Foreman Trade Contractors How Notified Method Statements, Risk Assessments, All of the above act to reduce the amount of waste and surplus materials, which traditionally would be skipped and sent to landfill. We are continually identifying ways to minimise waste and where possible these will be updated in the above table.
10. Segregation: Where possible a specific area will be laid out and labelled to facilitate the separation of materials for potential recycling, salvage, reuse and/or return. Recycling and any waste bins used are to be kept clean at all times and clearly marked in order to avoid contamination of materials. The labelling systems shall be the Waste Awareness Colour Coding Scheme. If bins and skips are clearly identified the bulk of the work force will deposit the correct materials into the correct bin/skip. Bins/skips for segregation of waste are currently identified as follows; Wood Metal Brick/Rubble As works progress and other trades come to site other bins/skips will be placed to enable certain waste to be removed from site. This is likely to include; Plasterboard Paper and cardboard (bagged up) 11. Management: Waste materials fall into three categories for management which are; Re-use Landfill Re-used If surplus materials can be used in the permanent works then they are classified as materials which have been re-used. If they are surplus to requirements and need to be removed from site but can be removed and used in their present form, then they can be removed from site for reuse. Recycling If surplus material cannot be re-used in its present form but could be used in a different form, it will be sent for recycling such as 50mm x 50mm timber to make chipboard. Landfill
If either of the above cannot be satisfied then the only option left is to send the surplus materials to landfill. At 37 Chester Row landfill will always be a last resort.

Paints Soils Use/Sell Site Waste management Plan (SWMP) The skips will need to be monitored in order to ensure that contamination of segregated waste does not occur. Therefore we will advise on a regular basis how the waste management system is working. We would make the point that an uncontaminated skip for recycling costs approximately 300 but should it get contaminate, then it has to go directly to a landfill site at a cost of approximately 350+ per skip. A cost which is continually increasing. We will continually review the type of surplus materials being produced and where we can change the site set up to maximise on re-use or recycling and the use of landfill will be the last resort. The Site Waste Management Plan will be communicated to the whole project team. Business wide updates including actual performance to KPI s (Key Performance Indicators) will be communicated and discussed at regular management meetings. The company HSQE Manager will produce KPI s and will be responsible for transferring and advising any best practices and solutions throughout the company. Our prequalification process identifies compliant waste management companies with records maintained on file.
