Figure 1: Waste Hierarchy Decision Process

6.1. 1        Waste Prevention Principles
Waste prevention principles to be adopted:

        When assessing design options, consideration shall be given to options that have higher waste reduction than
         the alternatives (if economical to do so);

        When assessing construction options, consideration shall be given to options that have higher waste reduction
         than the alternatives (if economical to do so);

        When purchasing for the project, consideration shall be given to either reduce or avoid the generation of waste;
         and

        Aim to accurately estimate and order quantities of materials required.

6.1. 2        Waste Reduce Principles
Waste reduction principles to be adopted:

        Material substitution for a less resource intensive product or service (generation) and reduce waste (disposal)

        Avoid disposable products (e.g. polystyrene cups) and buy bulk supplies.

        Recycle aluminium, glass and plastic drink containers.

        Avoid generating excess waste by using e-mail as much as possible, circulating one copy of a memo and have
         people sign it after reading, and editing rough drafts on computer.

        Reduce paper waste by photocopying double sided, printing double sided or using singled sided waste again as
         notepaper or for drafts
        Reuse old binders, file folders, report covers and general office equipment

6.1. 3        Waste Reuse Principles

Every effort will be made to ensure that waste material is seen as a resource and is used, either on-site within the project
or off-site either on other projects or by other persons. Waste reuse principles adopted are:

        Identifying materials for a reuse purpose;

        Segregated materials at the source of generation to facilitate reuse if economical to do so; and
        Storing or reusing those items either on-site or off-site, during the process if economical to do so.
