CNRSW INTEGRATED SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT

PROGRAM

Leslie L. McLaughlin

February 13, 2008

CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS

• Solid Waste defined in RCRA 40 CFR 261.2(a)• Use Federal and DoD Environmental Hierarchy

– “Disposal as last resort”– Executive Order 13423: Strengthening Federal

Environmental, Energy, and Transportation Management

– 10 USC 2577 – DOD 4715.4 Pollution Prevention

• Qualified Recycling Program Guidance– CA AB939 Waste Reduction Law

• We exist to divert- Diversion Rate is 76%We exist to divert- Diversion Rate is 76%

PROGRAM ELEMENTS ISWMP IS CENTRALLY MANAGED

Solid Waste Generated on CNRSW Installations Falls into 4 Categories

FOUR DIVISIONS• Recycling Operations

– CNRSWINST 5090.2

• Construction and Demolition Debris Management– CNRSWINST 11350

• Military Industrial Waste Management (Scrap Metal)

• Refuse Contracts

QUALIFIED RECYCLING PROGRAM

• DoDI 4715.4 Pollution Prevention, QRP Guidance

• One Qualified Recycling Program– One Suspense Account Managed by Region Resource

Management Organization under Regional Commander – QRP Revenues pay for manpower– Employees report to ISWMP Manager

• One Sales Mechanism– Increases Unit Price throughout SoCal Area– Legitimate and Accountable

• Collection and Processing of Recyclables– Manpower paid for with revenues– 10 Recycling Facilities throughout CA

CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION DEBRIS MANAGEMENT

• San Diego landfill is on DoN Property– Free tipping until landfill closes, projected 2012– $6M increase in landfill disposal costs for metro area when landfill

closes at current C&D diversion rate

• C&D by far the largest waste stream generated in metro area

• Must aggressively divert to preserve landfill space– 77% of C&D tonnage is diverted through the ISWMP– Requires SOURCE SEPARATION at point of generation

• CNRSWINST 11350 – Requires all C&D projects to submit solid waste assessment

management plan or waste assessment form

• ISWMP C&D Diversion Manager works closely with construction personnel to present diversion opportunities/alternatives

• ISWMP Office administers landfill coupon program

NOTE:

63% OF THE DISPOSAL COSTS PAID FOR 15% OF THE MATERIALS DISPOSED AT THE LANDFILL!!!

37% OF THE DISPOSAL COSTS PAID FOR 85% OF THE MATERIALS TO BE RECYCLED!!!!

OTHER INITIATIVES

• Zero Waste Policy Implementation

• Change from Waste Management to Resource Recovery

• Waste to Energy project as solution for landfill closure in 2012

• Development of Disaster Debris Management Plans and OCP layer– Incorporate DDM into Regional Emergency

Management Policy

CONCLUSION

• CNRSW Integrated Solid Waste Management Program promotes diversion

• More cost effective to divert than landfill waste

• Verifies economic feasibility goes hand-in-hand with environmental sustainability
