Constructing Excellence in Wales (CEW), Natural Resources Wales (NRW) and CL:AIRE would like to invite you to attend a CL:AIRE seminar. This session will introduce the various scenarios for material reuse in the CL:AIRE Definition of Waste Code of Practice (DoW CoP), the operational boundaries and its interaction with other industry initiatives. Delegates will gain an understanding of the headline considerations when using, or working alongside the DoW CoP.
Overview
The DoW CoP provides a streamlined mechanism for exiting the complex world of Waste Legislation for the re-use of excavated materials. It can be used by individuals involved in development activities ranging from general earthworks to complex land remediation projects and is applicable to both Greenfield and Brownfield sites. The DoWCoP is summarised in CL:AIREs Guidance Bulletin 3 available to download here
When successfully applied the DoWCoP can bring about significant cost savings to those who have formerly used waste management exemptions and is a quantifiable indicator of sustainable development.
Since its introduction in September 2008, use in the industry has steadily grown. This has primarily been driven by increasing landfill costs, a growing emphasis on sustainable development (including earthworks) and the removal of familiar and widely used waste exemptions. It is also regularly being referenced in Planning Permissions and waste policy documents.
Who Should Attend?
The session is aimed at all organisations involved with the development of land and therefore particularly relevant to the following groups who expect to use or work with the DoW CoP:
- Civil Engineering & Earthworks contractors
- Haulage companies
- Developers & House-builders
