Waste Management Practices

1. Waste Management

2. Introduction Waste (hazardous and non-hazardous) presents a serous risk to the ecosystem and human health if not properly managed and/or treated safely. Sustainable Waste Management is required from a legislative directive and moral responsibility. Sound waste management is part of the overall GOGCL’s philosophy for managing HSE issues of the Greenville’s LNG Plant.

3. Waste Management Strategy Reduce amount of waste generated. Develop Integrated Waste Management System to handle the inevitable waste produced - Reuse - Recycle Finally, “ Responsible Disposal ”

4. Benefits of Proper Waste Management Keeps the environment clean and fresh Saves the Earth and conserves energy Reduces environmental pollution Creates employment and opportunity earning income Meet regulatory requirement

5. GV Waste Management Plan Implement preventative measures aiming at the reducing waste generated; Locate waste collection bins in clear view and as close as possible to the users; Remove waste from the temporary collection bins to permanent disposal or treatment offsite to avoid that they forming dump; Train staff and contractors on the need for source segregation; Engage a waste treatment company that is duly accredited and authorised ; Issue a delivery note to allow for traceability; Be issued a certificate of destruction.

6. Waste Classification Non-Hazardous Waste Rubbish/Garbage Food Waste Scrap Metal Wood waste Scrap metal Grubbing & Clearing Waste Storm Water Cellulose Miscellaneous Discharges Hazardous Waste Electrical and Electronic Waste Medical waste Waste oil Sewage waste Battery waste Activated Carbon Molecular sieves Spent solvent Inorganic Sludge

7. Current Situation with Hazardous Waste Poor data on the volumes of hazardous waste generated on site No hazardous waste collector engaged No facility for treatment of hazardous waste on site Hazardous waste are probably mixed with other non-hazardous waste or sip into the ground

8. Required Actions Establishing of cost-effective and environmentally sound solutions for each waste stream (pesticides, waste oil, end-of-life vehicle, fluorescent tubes, batteries and accumulators, chemicals etc.) Purchase hazardous products from supplier that can take back spent product – ERP Engage a hazardous waste collector Keep record of all hazardous waste Track waste to final point of destruction and disposal

9. Situation with Non-Hazardous Waste Daily evacuation by HSE support Staff Mixed (co-mingled) collection of waste Temporary dump site outside the site Waste is evacuated from the TDS weekly Record of weight of waste is kept in the HSE Dept.

10. Location for Non-Hazardous Waste Bins Life Camp Admin area Clinic – medical waste bin Train 1, 2, and 3 areas Power Plant area Tank area Workshop area Loading bay area Main Gate area LNG station

11. Conclusions Sustainable Waste Management is not an option. It is both a regulatory requirement and a Greenville philosophy ; It will require a buy-in by all concerned – staff and contractors; A clean and waste free environment is the responsibility of all ; Contractors keep record of hazardous waste generated and information made available to the HSE department.
