WASTE MINIMISATION STRATEGIES

The hotel operator will be responsible for the education of staff in the practices of waste reduction/minimisation to divert waste from landfill. This will be achieved by the following:

Document and distribute details of the waste management system that is in place on site to all staff Distribution of notices to all staff encouraging waste separation All bins to be labelled and colour coded stating types of waste that can be deposited i.e. food waste bins, recycling bins, garbage bins Any future change to regulatory requirements or to the developments waste generation rates will require the operator to conduct a waste audit and revise the waste management system that is in place accordingly

ADDITIONAL WASTE MANAGEMENT INFORMATION

As bins and cleaners trolley would be wheeled throughout the building, any ramps would require a maximum gradient of 1:14 to meet regulatory requirements (steps not permitted). Items unsuitable for disposal via garbage or recycling bins would need to be disposed with the assistance of cleaning staff. This would include: large, heavy, and liquid waste items. To minimise security, vandalism, odour/visual impact, and health/safety issues, the following shall be implemented: Transferring waste and shifting bins shall require the minimum possible manual handling. The hotel operator will assess manual handling risks as per regulatory requirements and provide appropriate documentation to staff; Signage and usage labels for the garbage and recycling bins will be provided by the hotel operator; Bin stores will be secure and vermin proof and ventilated in accordance with Australian Standard AS 1668; A bin wash area comprising a sink, tap and floor drain with trap and sewer connection will be located within each bin store or alternatively a central bin wash down facility will be provided; Cleaning staff shall keep clean the bin store, keep bin lids closed and wash bins regularly and will ensure prompt return of empty bins once collection has occurred; A traffic management plan and collection-vehicle safe operation procedure shall be prepared by the operator of the development in consultation with the collection contractors, when appointed, and submitted to the City of Stonnington for approval prior to collections being performed on site; Use of the private road into the development results in indemnity issues for the collection contractors. Indemnity resolution is required prior to waste collections being conducted on site; The hotel operator shall source and enter into service agreements for waste collection services. The hotel operator will be responsible for all payments and costs associated with the waste collection services provided by collection contractors;
