Mass leaving facilities by destination (kg)
Provisional. Usable pending approval; a project-proposed concept only by the project that proposed it.
Definition
The summed mass of the weighed quantities on material offtake, residual disposal and organic treatment records dated in the reporting period, by destination (recycled, composted or treated, landfilled, stockpiled), material category and facility. Reported alongside, per facility and stream: the mass collected in the same period, and the difference between collected and leaving mass, as information on stock held at the facility, never as a claim. Kind count.
purpose
To close the loop from collection to destination for every stream, giving recovered mass by material for GHG methodologies and residual mass sent to landfill.
rationale
Only an offtake, treatment or disposal record evidences where material went; reporting every destination, landfill and stockpile included, shows the whole mass balance rather than the recovered part alone.
