GREEN LEED Concepts

ACCEPTABLE AND UNECCEPTABLE DEBRIS AT C & D LANDFILLS Due to the increase of hurricane generated debris, the greater New Orleans area land fills have had to comply with present and new rules from the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ). LDEQ has a representative at all land fill cells inspecting each and every load for acceptable and unacceptable debris. The land fills have established additional protocols including policy and procedures for all transporters; therefore we must pass the information to our clients to insure that all debris put into STCS, LLC’s containers are of an acceptable nature. Below is a list of acceptable and unacceptable debris. Please note that we can transport most unacceptable debris. However, there will be an up-charge on the load of unacceptable debris. ACCEPTABLE DEBRIS Non hazardous waste generally considered not water-soluble, including but not limited to metal, concrete, brick, asphalt, roofing material, sheetrock, plaster, lumber from a construction demolition and other building structure materials, furniture carpet, painted or stained lumber yard waste and other vegetative matter. The incidental admixture of construction and demolition debris with asbestos-contaminated waste (i.e. incidental asbestos-contaminated debris that cannot be extracted from the demolition debris) UNACCEPTABLE DEBRIS
And any other debris deemed unacceptable by LDEQ or the Landfill Arrangements can be made to transport the unacceptable debris at an additional cost. |
