3.1 Responsibility for site waste management

Anyone who produces or holds waste is obliged to dispose of it, or have it disposed of, in conditions that avoid harmful effects on the environment.

Waste disposal includes the collection, transport, storage, sorting and treatment operations required to recover reusable elements and materials or energy, as well as the deposit or discharge into the natural environment of all other products.

So, while companies physically "produce" waste, they do so at the request of the client or project manager. The client is therefore responsible, along with the company, for managing construction site waste.
