Logistic and Economic Factors Affecting the Reclamation and Recycling of Waste Material and By-Products. Project 8: Measurement and Description of the DOD Solid Waste Problem.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to design, test and implement a solid waste sampling plan for DoD installations which will generate usable information on solid waste generation, recovery and disposal by individual installations, commands, military services/DoD agencies and for the DOD as a whole. This interim report covers the first stage of the study. It primarily is concerned with the development and selection of alternative solid waste sampling plans for DoD installations. The scope is limited to acquiring data on the quantity, volume, (weight) composition and emission variables of the solid waste generated, recovered and disposed by the various activities of the installations.
