1. With the estimated number of meals vs. actual meals…will this be specified when either one is used to provide a head count of personnel (when none is found on the daily Incident Management Situation Report)?

0. Per section 7.1 – Waste Diversion Reporting, personnel count will be based on “number of dinner meals ordered” or the daily Incident Management Situation Report headcount of incident personnel.

1. Does firehose and “additional/optional service” items count towards total waste and have an impact on diversion rates?

1. Per section 3.0, “ It is the contractor’s discretion to determine specific material targets, equipment, staff, or other services needs that are required to achieve the minimum waste diversion thresholds for satisfactory performance (see Section 7.0). For example, the contractor may need to provide waste diversion/recycling services for additional items (outside of those designated as “primary” or “optional” as appropriate) to achieve the minimum waste diversion threshold as part of the “basic” service.” This could include items such as unserviceable fire hose and any other items the contractor can divert from the incident to maximize waste diversion results. (see How to Document Diversion of Scrap Fire Hose for additional guidance).
