First in house 3-Bins delivered
These 2 units were delivered to Noyes 1st floor north and south entry ways 11/12/2024.
These 2 units were delivered to Noyes 1st floor north and south entry ways 11/12/2024.
Fabricated through our own mill shop. Cost to make two of these bins is attached.
Members of the Zero Waste Team analyzed the main buildings in each of the three central quads. Locations of current 3-bins were noted as well as areas where more were needed. The plan is to transition away from single flow trash and recycling bins towards a system where only 3-bins are used in main hallways. This will ensure that there are well marked bins in highly visible areas and will condense the many bins that need to be serviced by university workers into fewer overall bins. Overall this initiative will lead to improved waste management efficiency and increased recycling rates across the campus.
Hi Todd & Mark,
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to reach out & reconnect on the topic of the black, metal outdoor bins. I believe we have 18 identified locations approved by Brent Lewis ready to be installed as soon as the shops are able (locations attached) – these all require concrete poured. We then have ~56 more stored primarily in the Buenting Barn that we have not yet identified locations for, but will very shortly. Some of them will require concrete and others will not. We have WO# 10814481 for this project. Pete is hoping to have the whole process wrapped up by June 30, 2024. I just wanted to put this back up on the radar and get a sense of whether we will be able to get these all installed by summer?
I will be in contact soon regarding the locations of the remaining bins.
Thank you!
Daphne

Good morning Daphne, Mark forwarded your email to me. When you send the lists of locations out, please be sure to copy all that are on this email.
In response to your question below of completion by June 30 that is not possible. Also, without knowing all of the locations it is difficult to give you an answer as to what the completion timeframe would be. Below are the two scenarios depending on the proposed locations of the bins.
Installing the bins on existing concrete:
1. Ironworkers can go to the site with the bins/post with two guys and install the anchors and the bins in 2-3 crew hours (4-6 hours total with two guys).
Installing the bins on newly placed concrete:
1. This process will begin with the labor supervisor going to the site and marking the location. 1-2 hours
2. The utility marking crew would then be notified, and they have a 48 hour window to locate utilities. 1-2 hours
3. Laborers and operators go to the site and dig out the spot and place rock. 3-4 crew hours
4. Cement finishers form and pour the concrete and it needs to cure for at least 48 hours. 3-4 crew hours
5. Ironworkers can install the anchors and the bin once concrete has cured. 2-3 crew hours
Depending on how closely the locations are to each other they may prepare 2 or 3 at once and rotate through those with the different steps above. However, that is not always possible.
I hope this helps to see how the two differ in time needed and to see how it really gets involved when the location requires new concrete.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you,
[Illinois]

Hi all,
I am sharing out 11 more locations which have been approved by Brent & Stacey. Please see attached, and please let me know if I can provide any additional information. I will continue to send out locations as I receive approval.
Thank you,
Daphne
Justin,
You can have Burzin work on this when he comes in, if you like.
Thanks

Hi all,
We have completed all outdoor bin location proposals. With all the photos it is a large document, so I have placed it on a shared Box. Please let me know if any of these locations need further clarification.
Thank you,
Daphne
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Daphne and Tim,
Once the additional bin locations are approved for installation let us know and we will get them added/updated in GIS.
Tim,
As your team completes installs let us know and we will collect “as-installed” location plus an image for GIS.
Daphne,
We’ve added the dual bins installed to date along with an image to GIS…(sample below)

Hi Dave,
What effort and rough costs would it take to clean off the hard water stains on filler station spouts across campus?
Thanks,
Morgan
-----------------
Pete,
What do you think about this? I will see if we have a list.
Dave
-------------------
We do have a list…I’ll have to find it and get it to you.
Thank you,
Pete
-------------------
Is this the BSW team to do this work?
Dave
----------------
Yeah, we remove water stains from sinks and faucets. If the Plumbing shop doesn’t mind we can add it to our “to do” list.
Thank you,
Pete

Pete,
We view this as BSW work not the Plumbing shop.
Thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave and Pete,
Pete – were you able to get some of these water bottle fillers cleaned, per the email below?
Dave and Pete – who would be responsible for resetting the filter status indicator light on the water hydration stations? I believe the filters would be replaced through BMG, but is the indicator light something that would be reset when the filter gets replaced? And I think there could be some hydration stations out there with no filter, but that still have a filter status indicator light…
Thanks,
Morgan
--------------------
Given our staffing shortages, we have not started working on this. It should be something we can get to over the winter break if hiring continues at the current pace.
Thank you,
Pete
On July 18th, Brent Lewis approved 16 more sites for installation, and the site on Champaign property was approved on July 6. On September 6th, these 17 sites plus the 7 additional sites sent to earlier this summer on June 7th (the eighth site at Siebel Center for Computer Science was installed on August 1st, so it was omitted from this spreadsheet), were sent to the iron workers for a total of 24 sites.
55 dual bins remain in storage and need site proposals from the zero waste team and approval from Brent Lewis.

Stacey,
I’ve looked into this and there is no issue with you replacing the existing concrete can. Please just minimize its encroachment into the walking path.

Hi Morgan,
You and Brent approved a dual bin installation site at 6th St and Daniel, near the Psychology Building. The new dual bin would face west and be located up against the building on existing concrete. Could we receive confirmation from the City of Champaign that this location is okay?
Thank you,
Daphne
