Purpose of Waste Management
The purpose of this procedure to provide guidelines and simplify the process of categorizing, quantifying, managing, and disposing of wastes. Waste management is a critical component of BPPs operating policies. Waste management includes the proper handling, accumulation, storage, manifesting, transportation, and disposal/recycling of the waste generated. The procedure is designed to assist in a company wide effort to provide protection for the environment and to comply with BPs corporate requirement, environmental laws and regulations regarding proper waste management.
2.0
Scope
Waste streams generated as part of drilling and production operations and from field camps shall be managed as per this procedure. Guidelines for proper handling, categorization, recording, minimization, recycling and disposal of all types of waste associated with BPP operations and projects are part of this procedure. This procedure shall be followed at all BPP sites by all BPP personnel and contractors working for BPP.
3.0
Definitions
(i) Waste: Any material for which no further use is intended, is considered a waste. It can be solid, semi solid or liquid. Additionally, abandoned materials and materials intended to be recycled are considered wastes. It is very important to understand this concept, because even though something is going to be recycled, it must be managed as a waste until it is actually recycled. (ii) Hazardous Waste: Waste is categorized as a hazardous waste if it has one or more of the following properties: Ignitability (flash point less than 60 0 C); Corrosivity (pH less than or equal to 2.0, or greater than or equal to 12.5); Reactivity (inherently unstable under ordinary conditions or when exposed to water); Toxicity (may present an unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment.)
(iii) Non-hazardous Waste: The wastes are categorized as Non-hazardous wastes, if they do not possess any of the hazardous characteristics as defined above. However, non-hazardous waste may still present hazards to employees who handle them. All recommended safety and handling practices must be followed.

Procedure
Priorities to manage the waste are listed below:

!"Eliminate
waste production. Use the material for its intended purpose on site, if
possible.
!"Minimize waste production. !"Reuse. !"Recycle waste on site. !"Dispose of waste in a proper waste disposal
facility.
4.1 Waste Minimization To minimize waste, the following steps shall be taken by all personnel working on BPP sites: Only the needed amount of materials shall be ordered. Before purchasing hazardous material, all alternatives for non-hazardous material should be explored. Prior consideration shall be given to the sizes of containers available when ordering products that could potentially generate waste. The intent is to avoid unused products and/or their containers from becoming wastes that require special handling.
4.2 Waste Categorization All wastes generated at BPP facilities shall be categorized in two major categories (i.e. Hazardous wastes and Non-hazardous wastes) as per the definitions in Section 3.0. Each category has different types of requirement for handling, storage and disposal. Table 1 shows the categories of most of the waste generated at our sites/ facilities/ camps. 4.3 Segregation / Labeling Waste management becomes very complicated if different types of waste are mixed together. A small amount of hazardous waste, mixed with a non-hazardous waste or recyclable material, can make the whole mixture a hazardous waste. Disposal costs and liabilities for hazardous waste are very high, so it is extremely important to identify wastes and keep them segregated. The scheme of segregation is as follow: (i) All hazardous waste shall be segregated from other types of hazardous wastes as well as non-hazardous wastes. At all facilities, following types of containers, with colour coding for easy identification, shall be kept to collect and segregate common wastes:
PRO/ENV/003 Page 6 of 46
(ii)
Document No.:
Rev. No. 0
(iii) (iv)
Glass (blue); Metals (green); Plastic (white); Oily rags (black); Used oil (red); General trash (yellow).
Food waste shall be collected in separate containers. All containers must be properly and clearly labeled. The label must clearly mention the name or type of waste. Also, if the waste is hazardous, it should be clearly labeled on the container along with its hazardous characteristics (e.g. flammable, toxic, radioactive, etc.). This is important to workers and to emergency response teams, who need to know what they are dealing with. Missing or unreadable labels must be replaced.
4.4 Storage and Handling (i) Waste, that will be sent for recycling or off-site disposal, shall be temporarily stored at waste storage facilities available at different sites such as Junkyard, Scrap yard, pits, etc. The oily sludge, contaminated soil and other hazardous liquid waste (e.g. rinsate, chemicals, etc.) shall be stored in lined pits with HDPE liner. Liner shall be of sufficient thickness (at least 20 mil) and strength to be resistant to tears and punctures. All other wastes awaiting disposal shall be kept in closed containers separately. Care must be taken to prevent wastes giving rise to secondary environmental problems, such as odors or soil and groundwater pollution through rainwater leaching. All stored wastes must be clearly labeled with type of waste and warning signs. (For guidance on each type of waste refer Annexure I). All workers handling wastes shall use proper PPE.
(ii)
(iii)
(iv) (v)
4.5 Recycling Recycling and reuse minimizes the quantity of waste requiring disposal. Some of the wastes can be reused within our facilities while others can only be recycled at off-site recycling centers. For example, recycling of used oil is possible in some of the Lube Oil Recycling companies; batteries may be sent back to manufacturer or distributor for recycling. Waste shall not be sold to the unauthorized contractors/companies, who may not have proper recycling facilities, to avoid misuse and to reduce associated liabilities. The possibilities of recycling of each waste are discussed in Annexure I.

4.6 Treatment Some of the wastes, such as wastewater from camps, oily wastewater from process, etc., require proper treatment before disposal. The treated water should comply with National Environmental Quality Standards (NEQS). 4.7 Disposal Disposal becomes the only available alternatives, if reuse and recycling options are exhausted. A material should be classified as a waste for disposal only if no other useful purpose can be identified and if the material cannot be beneficially reused or recycled. The choice of a suitable disposal option for any waste depends on both environmental and economic considerations. The final disposal can be either at on-site disposal facilities or at off-site disposal facilities. (i) On-site Disposal Facilities !" Burial Pits Only segregated food waste shall be buried in burial pits. Buried waste should be covered with a thin layer of soil to reduce the environmental problems, such as odour from decaying of waste, spreading of waste into other areas due to wind, etc. !" Reserve pits These pits are used to temporarily store drilling waste, chemical waste, oily sludge and contaminated soil. The pits should be properly designed and lined to avoid soil, groundwater and surface water contamination. !" Incineration Open design incinerators are available at three locations in Badin operations. As these are not properly designed incinerators, so they can only be used for burning trash. Before burning the trash, plastics, metal, glass and any other items that is not to be burned, should be segregated first. Ash of the incinerator shall be buried in the lined landfill as it may contain heavy metals. !" Evaporation Ponds The evaporation ponds are used to dispose of produced water at some facilities by evaporation. All evaporation ponds should be lined. !" Injection and Disposal Wells These wells are primarily used for re-injection or disposal of produced water. However, some of the wells could be chosen to dispose drill cutting, oily sludge and other hazardous liquids. Tubing and casing integrity of such disposal wells should be verified as per international standards. !" Lined Landfills At the moment there is no properly designed landfill available in Badin for the disposal of such wastes which cannot be reused or recycled or sold to third part contractors because of its

hazardous characteristics, BPP intends to construct a controlled landfill where all such waste could be disposed of. For the time being, two options are available with BPP, i.e. either temporarily store all those wastes or dispose of through contractors at off-site disposal facilities. (ii) Off-site Disposal Facilities: In Pakistan, properly designed and well-operated commercial waste disposal facilities are very limited. All such facilities are being explored and evaluated for possible future use.

Recording & Reporting
BPP has to record the information about source, composition, quantity, and final disposition of the waste. This information is needed for regulatory compliance, risk assessment and setting reduction targets and objectives as well as Corporate statistics. The Waste Tracking Form, as shown in the following page shall be used to record this information by all BPP teams, while waste is being dispatched outside facility or BPP controlled location. It is the responsibility of the Team Leader to assign a suitable person (such as Lead Operator at all manned fields) to sign off the Waste Tracking Form, before the waste is dispatched outside.

Scrap metal, wood, or other materials from a construction or demolition site. Components depend on the material. Construction and demolition debris that is not contaminated by chemicals, asbestos, oil, or NORM is a non-hazardous waste. Construction Team Leader If material is suspected of NORM contamination, measure the contamination level (count/sec) with contamination monitors. If the readings are twice or above the background levels then refer the Waste Data Sheet on NORM for more details. If the construction or demolition debris is not contaminated with other substances (i.e., chemicals, oils, NORM, etc.), it doesnt need any special handling. However care must be taken so that the dust emanating from the debris is well under control. Recycle material when possible. If construction and demolition debris is not contaminated with other substances, the following disposal options are applicable: Recycling, reusing or selling to a third party contractor; and Disposal in a landfill.
