CL:AIRE DoW CoP QPs at WSP
Now that is an impressive set of acronyms!
Following my recent success in being registered as a Qualified Person (QP) under the CL:AIRE DoW CoP (Definition of Waste: Development Industry Code of Practice), I thought I would give a brief update on the scheme.
The DoW CoP provides a framework that allows the reuse of excavated materials on-site or their transfer between sites, without being classified as waste. It therefore provides a useful alternative to Environmental Permits or exemptions.
A key element of the Code of Practice is the preparation of a Materials Management Plan (MMP), which sets out the site details, details of investigation and risk assessments, material quantities and a plan for the tracking of materials. The quality and consistency of these MMPs is policed by the industry and must be signed off by a registered Qualified Person (QP).
With me joining this illustrious bunch earlier this week, the Ground Risk & Remediation team at WSP now has six registered QPs.
Please do get in touch with me, any of our registered QPs or your regular WSP contact if you have any queries or would like to know how to apply the DoW CoP on your site.
