Waste:
Any substance or object which the holder discards or intends or is required to discard.

Total Organic Waste:


Measures the total amount of organic waste produced during current activities by contractors for
all programs. Organic waste is any material that comes from a plant or animal and is
biodegradable, it comes in manifold forms. A few instances of organic waste are: food waste,
food soiled paper (coffee filters, tea bags, paper cups, napkins, paper towels, tissues, wrappers,
paper plates), non-hazardous wood waste (paper, cardboard, lumber, pallets, plywood), green
waste (cut flowers, grass, leaves, branches, weeds).

Total Recyclable Waste:


Measures the total amount of recyclable waste managed during current activities by contractors
for all programs. All recyclable waste that doesn’t contain organic compounds (industrial origin
or any non-natural process) such as metal, plastics, glass, rubber, aluminium, concrete,
uncontaminated demolition waste, other (including batteries if they are safe to recycle).

Total Recyclable Organic Waste:


Measures the total amount of organic waste that has been recycled, rather than disposed of, by
contractors for all programs. A few examples are: cardboard, paper, wood / timber, pallets,
plywood.

Total Hazardous Waste:


Measures the total amount of hazardous waste produced during current activities by contractors
for all programs that poses substantial or potential threats to public health or the environment.
Hazardous waste requires special handling for detoxification or safe disposal. A few examples
are: waste oils, chemicals (used or out of date), paints, medical waste, contaminated materials
(rags, used adsorbent boom, etc.), contaminated machinery and equipment, other (including
batteries if they are not safe to recycle).

Total Special Waste:


Measures the total amount of special wastes during current activities by contractors for all
programs. Special waste is any solid/liquid waste or combination that due to its quantity,
concentration, physical or chemical characteristics or, biological properties requires special
handling and disposal. A few examples are: sewerage, grey water, sanitary waste and sludge .

Total Waste disposed by landfill:


Measures the total waste volume disposed via landfill instead of recycling, by contractors for all
programs.

Waste Disposal Cost:


Measures the average waste disposal cost during the reporting period, by contractors for all
programs.

Waste Producer:
anyone whose activities produce waste (original waste producer) or anyone who carries out pre-
processing, mixing or other operations resulting in a change in the nature or composition of this
waste.

Waste Management:
The collection, transport, recovery (including sorting), and disposal of waste, including the
supervision of such operations and the after-care of disposal sites, and including actions taken as
a collection and sorting companies.

Collection:
Gathering of waste, including the preliminary sorting and preliminary storage of waste for the
purposes of transport to a waste treatment facility.

Prevention:
Measures taken before a substance, material or product has become waste that reduce:
(a) The quantity of waste, including through the re-use of products or the extension of the life
span of products;
(b) The adverse impacts of the generated waste on the environment and human health; or
(c) The content of hazardous substances in materials and products.

Re-Use:
Any operation by which products or components that are not waste are used again for the same
purpose for which they were conceived.

Treatment:
Recovery or disposal operations, including preparation prior to recovery or disposal.

Recovery:
Any operation the principal result of which is waste serving a useful purpose by replacing other
materials which would otherwise have been used to fulfil a particular function, or waste being
prepared to fulfil that function, in the plant or in the wider economy.

Recycling:
Any recovery operation by which waste materials are reprocessed into products, materials or
substances whether for the original or other purposes. It includes the reprocessing of organic
material but does not include energy recovery and the reprocessing into materials that are to be
used as fuels or for backfilling operations.

Backfilling:
Any recovery operation where suitable non-hazardous waste is used for purposes of reclamation
in excavated areas or for engineering purposes in landscaping. Waste used for backfilling must
substitute non-waste materials, be suitable for the aforementioned purposes, and be limited to the
amount strictly necessary to achieve those purposes.

Disposal:
Any operation which is not recovery even where the operation has as a secondary consequence
the reclamation of substances or energy.

including treatment, process changes, control mechanisms, use of resources and material
substitution.

What is ambient sound:


Ambient sound is basically just background noise. The buzz of traffic, the sound of rain,
birds and bees rambling through nature, all of these noises add to the ambience. ... It
helps you listen to this ambient sound so you can enjoy your music and be aware of the
area around you.

Typical construction noise levels for construction equipment at a distance of 50 feet (15.24m) are
provided in Table below;

• Hazardous material storage.
Site activities will change after the precast yard, piling and other marine works are started in the
future and the Environmental Manager will ensure that the list is kept up to date, in order to
determine the specific site hazards when responding to an environmental emergency.

WASTE CLASSIFICATION (HAZARDOUS / NON HAZARDOUS):


A waste is any material or substance (Solid/Semi-Solid/Liquid/Gaseous) that has discarded or
intended to be discarded. A waste is generally defined by its physical, biological and chemical
characteristics. There are below generic waste types:
1. Hazardous Waste
2. Non-Hazardous Waste
 Construction Waste
 Undefined Waste
 Spill Waste
 Plastic Waste

Hazardous Waste - Substances that pose a present or future threat to man and/or the environment
which are unwanted and economically unusable and that are ignitable, corrosive, chemically
reactive or toxic. The following hazardous wastes are expected in the construction project:

Non-Hazardous Waste - Non-hazardous waste includes any rubbish or recycling that causes no
harm to human or environmental health. Any waste generated by industrial processes or civil
activities that is not classified as hazardous. The following Non-Hazardous waste is expected in
the construction project.

Construction Waste - Inert or non-hazardous construction waste produced through everyday


construction operations and living. Examples are waste concrete, waste masonry blocks,
cardboard, paper, tins/containers, etc.

Unidentified Waste - A material/substance to be discarded that is to be classified as hazardous


waste.
Spill Waste - Any spilled material that is, or contains, any substance that is classified as
hazardous or that cannot be identified will be defined as hazardous waste. This is inclusive of
any containers used for spill collection and all materials/substances that come into contact with
the spilled hazardous material (e.g. cloth, personal protective equipment [PPE], absorbent,
plastic, soil, etc.) unless the hazardous waste spillage and/or residue meets appropriate
exemption criteria. Spill waste will be disposed by GAMEP approved service provider. Spill
waste will be not allowed to store on site for more than 90 days as per PME Standard 13, Article
VI, 2b, and c.

Plastic Waste - All plastic waste will be collected and stored in large sealable containers. This
will help to prevent windblown debris from polluting the project area.

Collection and Segregation:


All waste will be collected, segregated where practicable, placed in suitable good condition bags
or containers and cleared away frequently to avoid unnecessary buildups of waste. Proper
handling equipment will be used where necessary. Hazardous waste will be not allowed to store
on site for more than 90 days as per PME Standard 13, Article VI, 2b, and c.
All hazardous waste containing bags/containers will be labeled clearly with a completed waste
identification label attached. Labels will be marked clearly with a long-life waterproof marking
pen.

Storage system:
Non-hazardous and hazardous wastes will be stored separately in defined storage areas, and
where practicable, segregated according to waste type. Wherever possible, wastes will be stored
under cover, away from direct sunlight, wind and rain. In the case of non- hazardous wastes, this
requirement can be satisfied by the use of sealed containers, or containers that are covered with
tarpaulin or net. Hazardous wastes will be stored in bags, containers, tanks or drums. Storage
under cover or in larger sealed containers is important to protect the integrity of the container.
All larger storage containers will continue the waste color scheme, be adequately labeled and be
specifically designed for the purpose.

Hazardous waste will be stored at site storage in compliance with (PME Standard 13, Article VI,
and 2b, c) for up to 90 days at a main waste storage area.
Non-hazardous and inert wastes will be removed off site within a maximum of 6 months from
the date of receipt. Construction debris and construction waste generated during this project will
be collected and removed to the designated waste disposal area on a regular basis. Wastes will
not be allowed to accumulate such that the material presents a safety hazard for workers or
members of the public or create a nuisance to the community.
Hazardous waste will not be placed in containers provided for non-hazardous waste. Such errors
may lead to hazardous waste being handled as non-hazardous, putting the handlers at risk, or
may lead to the waste being improperly disposed. Care will be taken in ensuring the soundness
of individual containers, ensuring adequate labeling of both individual and bulk containers and
compatibility of packed waste. An inventory will be kept of hazardous waste containers.
As far as practical, the storage of waste will be kept to a minimum. This keeps the storage areas
more hygienic and reduces risks associated with the storage of larger quantities of hazardous
waste.
Storage areas for waste, especially for hazardous waste, will be secure, marked to indicate the
hazards of the stored material and be provided with suitable facilities for dealing with spillage
and firefighting.
Special care will be made for Medical Waste in accordance with Medical Waste and Health
Facilities in KSA.
Where incompatible materials are handled on the same project they will be kept separately.
Attention will be paid to ensuring that “wrong” tanks or containers cannot be filled and that in
the case of spills or other foreseeable accidents the risks of contact are minimized.
The table below illustrates the effects of some common storage incompatibilities.

Disposal:
Non-hazardous waste Non-hazardous waste generated through the project activities and
domestic waste will be disposed to approve landfill of Municipality which is currently the only
option available in this area to comply with government rules and regulations. Proposed
company for this service is Al Taufeeq General Trading Company (see appendix 14 for GAMEP
license) and Averda International (recommended by TRSDC as this is a service provider for
TRSDC as well). By disposing waste properly to the landfill and not leaving it on site, our
environment is cleaner, meaning there are fewer health risks and hazards around to affect us and
the marine environment.

Hazardous waste: Hazardous wastes can cause harm to the environment. Studies have shown
that improper disposal of hazardous waste can even affect humans via drinking water and food
consumption. If a hazardous waste is not properly disposed, it can easily enter the environment at
an undesirable rate. MAH is fully aware of the impacts of improper disposal of hazardous waste
and will dispose hazardous waste in compliance with TRSDC procedures and GAMEP
regulations which is to contract a GAMEP approved hazardous waste company. Proposed
company for this service are Global Environmental Management Services (GEMS) (see
appendix 14 for GAMEP license). Hazardous waste will be not allowed to store on site for more
than 90 days as per PME Standard 13, Article VI, 2b, c. This will be disposed by a GAMEP
approved company.

CONNCRETE WASTE MANAGEMENT:


All concrete waste shall be dumped into temporary waste collection area, Sub contractor shall
collect all concrete waste at an adequate frequency and dispose into Municipality landfill area.
• MAH shall place the Concrete waste skips in the concrete activity areas to make sure that
concrete waste is being properly collected & disposed as per the environmental standard.
• Concrete Washout will be not allowed on general site area
• Concrete washout pits will be made for concrete washouts.
• Concrete washouts will be examined and if possible, will be re-used in non-structural low
strength concretes.
• Hand mixing of concrete at site will be not allowed.
. If hand mixed concrete is necessary, it will be carried out only on an impermeable surface.

SPILLS & CONTROL:


MAH is focus on controlling of any kind of chemicals oil/fuel spillage and other effluent
spillages on site by taking preventive action and controlling measure. As once a spill has reached
soil, gravel, pebbles or any broken ground, the control, containment and clean-up of the spill
often becomes more difficult. The type of cleanup described in these notes is for a minor spill of
oil or fuel chemicals. In a major spill onto soil, a different technique maybe recommended. The
four basic steps of a spill cleanup are.
• Control the spill
• Contain the spill
• Clean up the spill
• Remediate the soil

With spills onto soil the first steps often occur very quickly and unless the spill is large, may
only take minutes. Firstly, report to the site trained spill specialists. Clean-up to be undertaken
under guidance of responsible manager, before attempting any spill cleanup ensure the area is
safe to enter Check Safety data sheet (SDS). Adhere SDS instructions be Aware of fumes.
Approach from up wind. Always ensure personal protection equipment is worn.

DISPOSAL OF HAZARDOUS WASTE:


Methods will adopt for spill contaminated soil disposal. All collected waste collects in plastic
trash tie properly. Write with permanent marker attached detail about the spill. Attach the Safety
date sheet with waste trash. Dispose as per TRSDC standard with approved waste contractor.

WASTE MANIFEST
Disposal of the waste material including the contaminated soil and contaminated spill kit
material will be recorded through a waste manifest.

SPILL PREVENTIVE METHODOLOGIES


Any drums or containers that held a hazardous substance will be considered hazardous regardless
of the quantity of substance remaining in the drum or container.
Dedicated areas will be assigned to hazardous chemical and for containing hazardous
waste/liquid for disposal.
Store used oils in secure bulk containers which are double skinned or have bunds of 110%
capacity
All Generator arrange drip trays. with110% capacity.
Fuel tanks will be made up of 110% bund wall as per TRSDC standard as much possible to avoid
spill work at site.

WASTE WATER STORAGE


Skinned tanks or impermeable sealed bund. Individual containers are in excess of 200 liters will
be stored in double skinned tanks or impermeable sealed bunds with 110% capacity of the largest
container Wastewater storage tanks will be located in bunds. Mention below picture
Underground septic tanks to follow TRSDC requirements and be provided with overflow alarm
system, and concrete pad for vacuum tankers to prevent any spillages contaminating ground.

DISPOSAL HAZARDOUS WASTE:


All collected waste collects in plastic trash tie properly. Write with permanent marker attached
detail about the spill oil. Attach the Safety date sheet with waste trash. Dispose as per TRSDC
standard with approved waste contractor.
