2            Refuse Management
This section provides the detailed refuse calculations and describes the arrangements for the collection, storage, transfer and disposal of refuse
within the development. This includes associated bin quantities, storage capacities, equipment details, collection frequencies and site access
details.

2.1.         Refuse Calculations
Noosa Council does not prescribe a refuse generation rate for childcare uses. TTM audit data of operational childcare centres finds that the
average centre generates refuse in quantities consistent with City of Melbourne or City of Sydney Council’s prescribed generation rate. Given
statutory spatial clearances required for each placement, a direct correlation can be established between refuse generated by GFA or per
placement. TTM’s audit data finds on average, when broken down to a placement level each refuse is generated at 26L & 20L / Placement / Week
for general waste and combined recycling respectively.

For this development, City of Melbourne Council’s generation rates have been applied to the refuse calculations below, providing a storage
capacity of approximately 24L / Placement / Week for both general waste and combined recycling therefore providing a slightly greater total
storage capacity than TTM’s audit data would suggest is required.

It should be noted that these generation rates are not site or operator specific instead, give an estimation of potential waste generation. Once
operational, site-specific auditing will be required to establish actual refuse generation of this site and enable refinement of waste strategy and
bin numbers or collection frequency.
