WASTE MANAGEMENT
A dedicated landfill will be constructed as part of the project, to be used for
domestic waste. Procedures will be developed to minimize waste generation and
to ensure that all waste is appropriately managed (Volume H, Appendix 6). Any
hazardous waste will be properly collected and stored prior to treatment and
disposal. Waste hydrocarbons (such as used oil) will be incinerated within a
dedicated on-site incinerator.
