As part of the landmark redevelopment of Sydney’s iconic Powerhouse Museum, Elephants Foot Consulting prepared both the Operational Waste Management Plan (OWMP) and Construction & Demolition Waste Management Plan (CDWMP).

These plans were essential in aligning the project’s waste strategies with strict heritage and sustainability requirements. The museum’s complex usage profile—from public exhibitions to events and administration—required nuanced planning for both the construction and operational phases.

• Supported cultural heritage project with sustainability-first waste strategies
• Ensured waste management aligned with LEED and local council standards
• Enabled flexible waste infrastructure to suit future museum operations
