Rules belong to the standard, parameters to the project

Pre-release. This site describes standard version 0.1.0-dev, which is in development and may change before version 1.0.0.

Status: proposed

NWSS states each rule once, independent of any project. Where projects legitimately differ, the rule names a parameter. The project design sets the parameter’s value, and the methodology gives a default. Parameters include: - the eligibility criteria and what counts as a successful container deployment; - the service frequency and service period; - the carry-forward window for a service status (default 8 days); - the window for following up a missed service (default 7 days); - the material category level weighed, and stream overrides; - the streams claimed as diverted; - the monitoring plan’s sample size and visit window.

A parameter that changes what an indicator means is reported beside its values. No rule may name a town, project, form or form version.

Distilled from novaWaste2’s town-specific rules and literals tied to particular form versions (docs/distillation/activities-and-workflows.md §2, indicator judgements J5 to J11).

This page explains the standard and does not decide conformance: only the released corpus does. It describes docs/adr/0010-project-parameters.md at standard version 0.1.0-dev.
