Restricted – CommercialAEA/ ED02414/Issue 1<strong>Developing</strong> A <strong>Strategic</strong> <strong>Approach</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>Construction</strong> <strong>Waste</strong>As the SWMPs will also focus on fly tipping, employers will need <strong>to</strong> be sure that all waste that isleaving their site is being disposed of legally.“Proposed legislation on Site <strong>Waste</strong> Management Plans is ill conceived. It should be targeted atdesigners rather than contrac<strong>to</strong>rs <strong>to</strong> design out waste.”Bovis Lend Lease, Andrew Kinsey, Environmental ManagerOverlapsAs this legislation will be tackling fly tipping, it will overlap with others that tackle this such as the AntiSocial Behaviour Act 2003.There is also a degree of similarity with the EU <strong>Waste</strong> Framework, which requires Member States <strong>to</strong>put waste control regimes in<strong>to</strong> place.SWMPs will overlap with the Code for Sustainable Homes, as the Code sets minimum standards forall elements of house construction, which include site waste management.16 AEA Energy & Environment
