Refer to UNC-Chapel Hill Design Guidelines Chapter III: Construction Staging Areas, Pedestrian and Vehicular Access,Traffic Control and Pedestrian and Bike Safety Plans and Chapter IV: Construction Design Guidelines for Working Within and/or Near Occupied Buildings.

In order to maintain services to buildings under construction and adjacent buildings, OWRR and its contractors must be able to access dumpsters and loading docks during all phases of construction and renovation.  Contact Ray Lanier (919) 962-7175.

The questions and considerations given in this section are designed to ensure continued and efficient solid waste services to campus buildings.

These issues must be addressed and discussed with OWRR throughout the design process.

Campus Dumpster Use

Construction Waste: Campus dumpsters and recycling bins are not to be used by contractors and their employees. A Solid Waste Management Plan is required for all campus projects. In the plan, the contractor provides his or her plans for construction and demolition waste management throughout the project.
Blocking Dumpsters: Dumpsters and service areas are to remain accessible throughout the project and are not to be blocked by construction activity, gates or vehicles at any time. If, at any time, unexpected conditions cause access to be temporarily blocked, OWRR must be notified immediately.
