B. Drawings and general provisions of the Contract, including General and Supplementary Conditions and Division 1 Specification Sections, apply to this Section.
1.02 WASTE MANAGEMENT GOALS FOR THE PROJECT
A. The District has established that this Project shall minimize the creation of construction and demolition waste on the of job site. Factors that contribute to waste such as over packaging, improper storage, ordering error, poor planning, breakage, mishandling, and contamination, shall be minimized. Of the inevitable waste that is generated, as many of the waste materials as economically feasible shall be reused, salvaged, or recycled. Waste disposal in landfills shall be minimized.

1. Clean dimensional wood, pallet wood.
2. Bricks.
3. Concrete Masonry Units (CMU).
4. Cardboard.
5. Metals.
6. Gypsum board (unpainted).
7. Paint.
8. Carpet and pad.
9. Beverage containers.
10. Insulation.

1.07 WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN
A. Waste Management Plan: Within 10 calendar days after receipt of Notice of Award of Bid, or prior to any waste removal, whichever occurs sooner, the Contractor shall submit to the Architect a Waste Management Plan. The Plan shall contain the following:
