Waste Plan
Event Waste Plan and Permit File: what it covers
Quick answer
The City's special events guide lists waste plans among its contents, so the restroom and waste arrangement belongs in the permit file. The section sets out the units and their clusters, the count and its reasons, the servicing schedule, and the route the waste takes to a permitted wastewater treatment facility under Oklahoma's septage rules.
An event permit file is a set of documents that a reviewer reads in order. The restroom and waste section is one of them, and it is easier to review when it is built in the same order each time.
The section starts with the units and the count, goes on to the servicing and the log, and ends with the waste's route. The provider supplies the unit details and the route, and the organizer assembles the section into the file.
The reviewer is looking for three things: enough units for the crowd, a servicing plan that keeps them usable, and a waste route that leads to a permitted facility. A section that answers all three in a page is quicker to approve.

Our process
How our event waste plan and permit file visit works
List the units and clusters
Write each cluster, its count and its place on the site plan, with the accessible units marked.
Write the count and its reasons
State the headcount, the length of the event and whether alcohol is served, and how each was used.
Set the servicing schedule
List the visits by time and day, including the extra visits before the peak and the pickup after the event.
Name the hauler and the facility
Give the hauler's annual DEQ licence reference, its vehicle registration and the permitted facility the waste goes to.
Attach the record form
Include a blank visit log so the event team can record each visit as the event runs.
What does the reviewer need to see?
The units, the count and its reasons, the servicing schedule and the route the waste takes.
A reviewer checks the section against the site plan and the event hours. A section that matches both is quicker to approve.
The section should be short enough to read in a few minutes and complete enough to answer the next question before it is asked.
What should the hauler's details include?
The annual DEQ licence reference, the vehicle's registration number, and the name of the permitted facility the waste is taken to.
The Oklahoma rules require the hauler's annual licence and the vehicle's registration to be displayed and current. A file that lists those details is easier to check.
The facility should be named, not described as a generic plant.
How is the log kept?
A visit log is kept on site, with the time, the unit, the work done and the initials of the person who did it.
The log is the proof that the schedule was followed, and it is handed to the organizer at the end of the event.
A copy is kept with the permit file in case the office asks for it.
What changes after the file is approved?
Changes to the count, the clusters or the schedule are recorded, and where they affect the approved plan they are reported to the office.
A change that moves units onto a new space or changes an emergency route is one the office should hear about.
The changes are noted in the file, with the date and the reason.
How is the waste plan updated during the event?
The plan is updated when the hauler, the facility, the count or the schedule changes, and the updated copy is posted with the event office and the stewards.
A change that is not posted is a change the stewards do not know about, and a steward who is asked a question should have the current plan to hand.
The changes are dated, so the file shows the plan as it was at each point in the event.
Who signs off the waste plan?
The organizer signs the plan, the provider signs its part of it, and the copy is held by both, so each side has the same document.
A signed plan shows that both parties agreed to the same arrangement, and it is the document a reviewer or an inspector will ask for first.
The signatures are dated, and any later change is initialled by both parties and attached to the plan.

Why event waste plan and permit file is different in Greater Oklahoma City
Oklahoma City's wastewater facilities are the destinations the rules point to, and the hauler should name the one it uses.
Festivals on the downtown streets need the section to cover each closure and each cluster.
A recurring event builds its section from the previous year's log, which makes the count easier to defend.

Does Oklahoma require accessible portable toilets?
No Oklahoma rule for accessible portable toilets was found in the sources for this page, so the federal Americans with Disabilities Act standard is the reference for public events.
