In April 2021 the Environmental Protection Agency published new draft guidelines, Best Practice Guidelines for the preparation of Resource Management Plans for Construction & Demolition Waste Projects,  for which public consultation closed in June 2021.   The draft guidelines, which will be finalised shortly, supersede the Best Practice Guidelines on the Preparation of Waste Management Plans for Construction and Demolition Waste Projects, which were published in July 2006.  We recommend that reference be made to these new draft guidelines in Chapter 11, potentially to be included within Sections 11.14 to 11.22  on Statements to Support Development Proposals, and also  in Section 11.265   Management of Construction Sites.
