CC7 ON-SITE WASTE MANAGEMENT

All new developments must include suitable facilities for the management of waste generated by the development, including the collection and storage of separated waste and where feasible on-site energy recovery.

  • all developments, including where practicable, conversions and change of use, should aim to minimise waste and should provide convenient facilities with adequate capacity to enable the occupiers to separate, store and recycle their waste both within their own residence and via accessible and inclusive communal storage facilities, and where possible compost green waste on site;
  • in major development proposals, on-site waste management should be provided, particularly for commercial and industrial waste streams; and
  • sustainable waste behaviour, including the re-use and recycling of construction, demolition and excavation waste will be encouraged and recyclable materials should, wherever feasible, be segregated on site, providing there is no significant adverse impact on either site occupants or neighbours. On larger demolition sites, the council will expect details of the type and quantity of waste arising and details of proposed methods of disposal, including means of transport.
