The Site Waste Management Plans Regulations 2008 were laid before the UK Parliament on 15 February 2008, and came into full force on 6 April 2008. The regulations do not apply to any project planned before 6 April, if construction work commenced before 1 July 2008, and apply only to projects in England.
They apply to all projects with a value of £300,000 or more, with additional updating requirements for projects with a value of £500,000 or more.
The regulations place the initial responsibility for the production of the plan with the client. The client must produce the plan before the project is started. If a project is started without a site waste management plan, then both the client and the principal contractor are guilty of an offence under these regulations. The regulations also lay out what the plan must include.

“The important thing about travel in foreign lands is that it breaks the speech habits and makes you blab less, and breaks the habitual space-feeling because of different village plans and different landscapes. It is less important that there are different mores, for you counteract these with your own reaction- formations.”
—Paul Goodman (1911–1972)
“The admission of Oriental immigrants who cannot be amalgamated with our people has been made the subject either of prohibitory clauses in our treaties and statutes or of strict administrative regulations secured by diplomatic negotiations. I sincerely hope that we may continue to minimize the evils likely to arise from such immigration without unnecessary friction and by mutual concessions between self-respecting governments.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
