The Berks County Community Foundation project is implementing a job-site recycling program with a goal of diverting 75% of the project’s waste from landfills. To date 238.18 tons of material or 95.04% of the project’s waste has been diverted from landfills.
As we enter the final phases of construction, it appears very possible that we could finish this project at or above the 95% mark since this is done by weight and the removal of the sidewalks (which will be diverted) and the drywall waste (which is all recycled) hasn't hit the report yet.
I'm told that while this kind of diversion isn't unprecedented, it's very rare and reflects an amazing job by the team from Butz/Burkey. And remember, it saved us money!
