Contractors required to submit waste management plans
The article discusses the Kingdom's plan to reduce construction and demolition waste, aiming to increase the diversion rate from landfills from 9% in 2025 to 89% by 2040. The plan includes establishing regulations and preliminary procedures starting from the project planning stage, such as preparing a Construction and Demolition Waste Management Plan (CDWMP) at the time of permit issuance. This plan involves classifying materials, organizing sorting, storage, and waste handling to promote reuse and recycling. Contractors are held responsible for implementing these plans, with oversight from relevant authorities to ensure compliance. It is noted that managing demolition waste requires special planning due to the variety and volume of materials produced, with an emphasis on source separation, especially hazardous materials. The same approach applies to infrastructure projects, with organized storage yards and transportation processes to prevent pollution, all aimed at improving the efficiency of construction and demolition waste management and reducing environmental impact.
