Are there any heroes out there who could simplify the whole process for the many construction process managers and prject leaders who are going to be up the wall with this new legislation. I can feel a headache coming on. A simplistic template with easy to follow guidelines may prove to the most worthwhile piece ever produced on this forum. Please help!!

If you are looking for something more detailed than identified above then I am afraid you will need to talk to those providing commercial solutions. They spend a lot of time analysing the material and developing solutions and if they are like me they regard it as far too early to be giving away intellectual rights to materials and systems.

Posted By SJA Hi Tony May be worth having a look at the following WRAP site, they offer a free SWMP template based on an excel programme, though it is not exactly what I would call 'Simple': http://www.wrap.org.uk/c...anagement/swmp_form.htmlIf this is the type of recording keeping that is anticipated, I can see the creation of a whole new industry sector that deal purely with SWMP's. Have a look and see what you think...... Steve

Why is it that when a doctor, accountant, process engineer, designer, cook, binman etc is needed people commission one but where H&S and /or environmental ares are concerned people DIY it?
Commission a competent person to help re your SWMP, as you would do a designer / CDMC, this then would free you to get on with other work

Hear hear!
If you are competent to draft a SWMP then you are competent to develop one from the info available. These regulations will I think make a significant number of organisations reflect on their waste maangement knowledge.

Item number 6 of the regulations state the estimated cost being greater than £300,000.
Is this simply the estimated cost of the project and does this cost include everything from posters, buckets mops, desks, shopfitting works, air con etc………

It is the tender figure exclusive of VAT or the negotiated figure if this route is used to determine the price. If your list is necessary to complete the job then yes their cost is included in the tender or negotiation.
I have no doubt however that many will do the old trick of project subdivision to get below the magic numbers if they can. Clearly the new F10 with its ability to notify only one type of work per notification will aid and abet this process.

Thanks chaps
the relevant responses made me re-check and scrutinise best practice, and I am now fully at ease with what is wrong and what is right.
I totally refute the idea of appointing an environmentalist as a competent person. Thats a bit like jumping into a river when all you need is a drink of water. We are talking about waste here and thankfully the sensible guys who have practical knowledge and experience have e-mailed a template which is sufficient.Basically we use a reputable waste management company(Go Green) and they recycle everything. So simple it is scary

Just remember that you still have to check they are doing it and get the vol/wt information back for recording in the plan. I have seen too many deficient trabnsfer notes drawn up by the carriers et to trust them that completely without monitoring.
