Supporting documentation may include any of the following as appropriate: ? ? ? ? ? Hauler load tags Project waste tabulation, supplied by the local waste authority Diversion/waste facility receipts Average recycling rates for the local facility from the local waste authority Photos of household recycling

Note: When a mixed waste load is brought to a facility, the facility rate for recycling mixed C&D must be used, and not the overall recycling rate or commonly reported rate for the facility.

Measure A1.2 After construction, the builder must provide the Rater with a Post-Construction Debris Recovery Statement or equivalent C&D documentation documenting the single source separation and/or recycling. Documentation must include a listing of material category and material, and documentation supporting single source separation or recycling of material. Documentation may include the following: ? ?
