Inquiry

It will be difficult to demonstrate waste diversion from this job site. Waste haulers for production builders pick up waste from numerous job sites to minimize transportation and fueling costs. This makes it impossible to determine how much waste comes from the Builder or any of the other builders with whom this waste hauler contracts.\n\nWe propose the following sampling approach:\n\nFor one building on the project (there are ~40 sets of townhomes planned over 3 years), the waste hauler will come every two weeks (instead of twice very week) to collect waste and keep records. This approach would be too expensive to do for every building, but it can be done for some subset of the total.
