Construction and demolition materials recycled, donated, or otherwise recovered:
Construction and demolition materials landfilled or incinerated:
Percentage of construction and demolition materials diverted from the landfill or incinerator through recycling, donation and/or other forms of recovery:
A brief description of programs, policies, infrastructure investments, outreach efforts, and/or other factors that contributed to the diversion rate for construction and demolition waste:
We try to recycle as many materials from renovations as possible. BHSU worked alongside the contracted building company to recycle as much as possible from the renovation of the library in 2021. BHSU utilizes it's own infrastructure and personal to transport recycling to a company that takes and pays for it, which is 20 miles away. All other materials are either stored or sent to the landfill.
