Waste Management Flowchart for Building Demolition and Renovation Projects Types of C&D Facilitities Registered C&D Processing Facility: Can receive and process "uncontaminated" and unadultered wood, asphalt pavement, brick, concrete, masonary waste, soil or rocks. Permitted C&D Landfill: Can accept and dispose of only C&D waste Can accept and dispose of C&D and other solid Permitted Transfer Station: wastes for the purpose of subsequent transfer to another solid waste management facility. Dispose at an EHSS Approved NYSDEC Regulated Part 360 Landfill OR Dispose at a NYSDEC Permitted Transfer Station (if facility is permitted to accept the waste material) Dispose of as Solid Waste (Sampling and Analysis may be required prior to Disposal) Dispose at a NYSDEC Permitted C&D Landfill OR Dispose at a NYSDEC Permitted Transfer Station OR Dispose at a EHSS Approved NYSDEC Regulated Part 360 Landfill Dispose of as "Uncontaminated" C&D Debris NO OR 1 2 Dispose of at a NYSDEC Registered C&D Processing Facility YES Does the construction debris contain ONLY the following materials 2? Unadulterated wood, recognizable uncontaminated concrete and other masonry waste (including steel or fiberglass reinforcing embedded in concrete), asphalt pavement, brick, soil or rock. NO Is the building material(s) to be impacted suspected to contain a contaminant? (e.g., asbestos, lead, PCBs, petroleum, chemicals, etc.) NO Does the construction debris qualify as C&D debris under the following definition1? Construction and demolition (C&D) debris means uncontaminated solid waste resulting from the construction, remodeling, repair and demolition activities. Such waste includes, but is not limited to: • bricks, concrete and other masonry materials • soil and rock • wood • non-asbestos insulation • wall coverings, plaster, drywall • plumbing fixtures • roofing shingles and other roof coverings • asphaltic pavement • glass • plastics that are not sealed in a manner that conceals other wastes • floor tiles, linoleum, ceiling tiles • electrical wiring/components containing no hazardous liquids that are incidental to any of the above • pipe and metals that are incidental to any of the above. YES Does the construction debris contain metals? (other than metals incidental to another C&D debris material - e.g., rebar in concrete) NO Does the construction debris contain any type of surface coatings, mastics, or finishes other than glazed finishes? (i.e., are there any paints, stains, glues, or similar products on the debris?) NO YES Disposal Requirements will be Dependant Upon Analytical Results (Parameters for Analysis will be dependant on the suspected contaminant) YES Send for Scrap Metal Recycling Metal debris must be segregated out and sent for scrap metal recycling at an EHSS approved Metals Recycler. YES 1 Does the construction debris contain any of the following materials ? • garbage (i.e., putrescible solid waste including animal and vegetable waste from foods) • corrugated container board • electrical fixtures containing hazardous liquids such as fluorescent light ballasts or transformers • fluorescent lights • carpeting, furniture • appliances • tires • drums • containers greater than ten gallons in size, any containers having more than one inch of residue remaining on the bottom and fuel tanks. NO Material will Require Sampling and Laboratory Analysis prior to Removal/Demolition and Disposal Dispose of as Solid Waste (Sampling and Analysis may be required prior to disposal) YES Dispose at an EHSS Approved - NYSDEC Regulated Part 360 Landfill OR Dispose at a NYSDEC Permitted Transfer Station (if facility is permitted to accept the waste material) 6 NYCRR Part 360-1.2(b)(38) is the source of the definition for C&D debris and the materials that are excluded from the definition of C&D debris. 6 NYCRR Part 360-16.1(d)(i) allows for registered processing facilities to receive unadulterated wood, uncontaminated concrete and other masonry waste (including steel or fiberglass reinforcing embedded in concrete), asphalt pavement, brick, soil or rock.
