About this file
This is a Scope of Work specification document for Construction Waste Management and Disposal (Section 01 74 19) applicable to capital improvement projects managed by Capital Region Water in Pennsylvania, specifically for the 2027 Sewer System Improvements Project. The specification requires contractors to develop and implement a comprehensive construction waste management plan that diverts demolition and construction debris from landfill disposal while redirecting recyclable materials back to manufacturing processes. The plan must identify transportation companies, recycling and adaptive reuse processing facilities, on-site sorting methods, and anticipated materials for recycling. Contractors are required to employ source separation or comingling methods suitable to their selected recycling center and must collect construction waste in marked bins or containers for transport to appropriate facilities. Materials identified for recycling include packing materials, recyclable plastics, organic plant debris, earth materials, native stone, asphalt and concrete paving, wood, glass, metals, and equipment oil. Storage areas must be maintained in orderly condition to prevent environmental pollution, fire hazards, and material contamination, with waste materials subject to disintegration covered to prevent air, water, and soil pollution. The contractor must obtain receipts for all deliveries to recycling centers and legal disposal facilities.
The specification establishes waste prevention requirements that include ensuring correct material quantities are delivered to the site, selecting products with minimal packaging, requiring suppliers to use returnable pallets or containers, and implementing supplier buyback programs for rejected or unused items. No specific budget allocation is provided within this specification document, as waste management requirements are typically integrated into overall project budgeting. The specification emphasizes cost savings or minimal additional cost to the project for waste disposal implementation and requires contractor oversight to instruct construction personnel on plan compliance and document results. The construction waste management plan must be submitted to the Engineer and Owner if requested, reviewed at preconstruction and progress meetings, and distributed to all affected subcontractors prior to implementation.

01 74 19 – Construction Waste
Management and Disposal
1.0 General
1.1 Summary
A. Section Includes:
1. Construction waste management plan.
2. Construction waste salvage and recycling.
3. Disposing of nonhazardous demolition and construction waste.
1.2 Plan Requirements
A. Develop and implement construction waste management plan as approved by
Engineer.
B. Intent:
1. Divert construction, demolition, and land-clearing debris from landfill disposal.
2. Redirect recyclable material back to manufacturing process.
3. Generate cost savings or increase minimal additional cost to Project for waste disposal.
1.3 Submittals
A. Section 01 33 00 – Submittal Procedures contains requirements for submittals.
B. Construction Waste Management Plan: Submit construction waste management plan, if requested by the Engineer and/or Owner, describing methods and procedures for implementation and monitoring compliance including the following:
1. Transportation company hauling construction waste to waste processing facilities.
2. Recycling and adaptive reuse processing facilities and waste type each facility will accept.
3. Construction waste materials anticipated for recycling and adaptive reuse.
4. On-Site sorting and Site storage methods.
1.4 Construction Waste Management Plan
A. Implement construction waste management plan at start of construction.
B. Review construction waste management plan at preconstruction meeting and progress meetings specified in Section 01 31 13 – Project Coordination.
C. Distribute approved construction waste management plan to Subcontractors and others affected by plan requirements.
D. Oversee plan implementation, instruct construction personnel for plan compliance, and document plan results.
E. Purchase products to prevent waste by:
1. Ensuring correct quantity of each material is delivered to Site.
2. Choosing products with minimal or no packaging.
3. Requiring suppliers to use returnable pallets or containers.
4. Requiring suppliers to take or buy back rejected or unused items.
1.5 Construction Waste Recycling
A. Use source separation method or comingling method suitable to sorting and processing method of selected recycling center. Dispose nonrecyclable trash separately into landfill:
B. Source Separation Method: Recyclable materials separated from trash and sorted into separate bins or containers, identified by waste type, prior to transportation to recycling center.
C. Comingling Method: Recyclable materials separated from trash and placed in unsorted bins or container for sorting at recycling center.
D. Materials suggested for recycling include:
1. Packing materials including paper, cardboard, foam plastic, and sheeting.
2. Recyclable plastics.
3. Organic plant debris.
4. Earth materials.
5. Native stone and granular fill.
6. Asphalt and concrete paving.
7. Wood without embedded nails and staples.
8. Glass, clear and colored types.
9. Metals.
10. Equipment oil.
2.0 Products – Not Used.
3.0 Execution
A. Collect construction waste materials in marked bins or containers and arrange for transportation to recycling centers or adaptive salvage and reuse processing facilities.
B. Maintain recycling and adaptive reuse storage and collection area in orderly arrangement with materials separated to eliminate co-mingling of materials required to be delivered separately to waste processing facility.
C. Store construction waste materials to prevent environmental pollution, fire hazards, hazards to persons and property, and contamination of stored materials.
D. Cover construction waste materials subject to disintegration, evaporation, settling, or runoff to prevent polluting air, water, and soil.
3.2 Construction Waste Disposal
A. Deliver construction waste to waste processing facilities. Obtain receipt for deliveries.
B. Dispose of construction waste not capable of being recycled or adaptively reused by delivery to landfill, incinerator, or other legal disposal facility. Obtain receipt for deliveries.
