Waste Management has announced two pilot programs targeting construction and demolition recycling in
The company runs the county landfill and hopes the two projects will cut down on the amount of material headed there.
Waste Management is seeking state approval for a tear-off asphalt shingle recycling program. According to the report, the landfill receives about 100 pounds of the material per day and wants to recycle it into a product that can be reused as asphalt, new roofing material or spray-on parking material.
If approved, Waste Management will start the program in September.
The other pilot product would affect C&D debris by separating metal, wood, concrete, brick and sheetrock out. This program does not need state approval and would affect 500 tons of C&D debris received by the landfill per day.
