This course provides the information and knowledge required
to properly manage Construction and Demolition debris material
and the disposal of any residuals from such operations. Environmentally
and economically sound design of recycling and disposal operations
for C&D debris materials is also addressed.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course, participants will
be able to:
- Identify environmental impacts of construction and debris,
potential danger to human health or environment, and define
construction and debris
- Understand how construction and demolition debris is
defined by federal statute
- Distinguish the factors affecting C &D Debris composition,
methods for estimating the composition of C&D debris
- Identify primary markets, specific material markets,
and the types of markets that can be used for recycling
of recovered C&D debris
- Explain the importance of landfills, landfill regulations,
permitting, and design and layout
- Illustrate characteristics of C&D landfill leachate,
groundwater impacts and monitoring
- Identify future trends in C&D management and factors
influencing those trends
