Footnote
D1-D12, D16 and D18 operations are considered to constitute final disposal;
Whereas,
D13-D15 and D17 operations are considered intermediary operations which will lead to final disposal; and
D15 refers to the interim storage operations undertaken at transfer stations.

Footnote
R1-R11, R14 and R17 operations are considered to constitute recycling operations;
Whereas, R12-R13 and R16 are considered intermediary operations which will eventually lead to recycling; and
R16 refers to the interim storage
