# WASTE MANAGEMENT SERVICES AGREEMENT

Date: 19 August 2029

Parties: GreenLoop Environmental Limited and Riverside Food Hall Limited

## 1. Parties and purpose

GreenLoop Environmental Limited (Company No. 08887766), an Environment Agency-permitted waste carrier at 4 Quarry Road, Nottingham NG7 2PX, will collect Riverside Food Hall Limited's waste from 9 Market Yard, Nottingham NG1 2AB. Riverside remains the producer and must describe waste accurately; GreenLoop must accept only streams it is authorised to handle.

## 2. Scope, price and subject

Collections occur Monday, Wednesday and Friday before 10:00: food waste in sealed bins, dry mixed recycling in blue bins, cardboard flattened and tied, and residual waste in black bins. Clinical, asbestos, gas cylinders, electrical equipment and other hazardous waste are excluded unless a written schedule, consignment note and lawful route are agreed. The monthly fee is £1,860 plus VAT.

## 3. Operating duties

Riverside must segregate, label and secure containers, prevent contamination, keep access clear and tell GreenLoop about a change in waste composition. GreenLoop supplies suitable bins, records weights, collects without unreasonable spillage and reports a missed collection within one business day. Neither party may mix separated recyclable material contrary to the agreed route.

## 4. Compliance, records and controls

Both parties comply with the Environmental Protection Act 1990, Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2011, environmental permits, duty-of-care requirements and applicable health-and-safety law. Riverside retains waste transfer notes and GreenLoop provides them with the correct European Waste Catalogue description; hazardous consignments require the prescribed consignment note and authorised facility.

## 5. Term, ending and remedies

GreenLoop will use a permitted facility and provide quarterly diversion and contamination reports. Riverside may audit permits, subcontractors and weighbridge records on reasonable notice. GreenLoop must notify Riverside promptly of a regulator visit, rejected load, pollution incident or suspected unlawful disposal and co-operate with remediation. Riverside must notify GreenLoop of any emergency or contamination.

## 6. Liability and reservations

A contaminated load or failed collection is remedied by a return visit where reasonably possible; disposal charges caused by Riverside's inaccurate description or contamination are payable after evidence. Neither party excludes liability for environmental criminal liability, fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence. Other aggregate liability is capped at 12 months' fees, without excusing the statutory duty of care.

## 7. Governing law and signatures

The initial term is 24 months from 1 September 2029, then annual renewal with 90 days' notice. Either party may terminate for permit loss, serious environmental breach, insolvency or an uncured material breach. England and Wales law governs; GreenLoop's director Tom Ellis and Riverside's director Nadia Hussain sign on 19 August 2029.
