Construction and Demolition Waste (C&D) Generation and Composition Study and Analysis | ItascaCoLF (2)

The MPCA conducted a study to quantify the generation of C&D destined for disposal, recycling, and reuse, and to better define the composition of the statewide C&D waste stream. MSW Consultants was hired to conduct characterization activities at landfills across the state, including facilities in the Metro and Greater Minnesota regions. Over 430 samples were characterized over two seasons of data collection at six different facilities. Further, through a survey sent to contractors, trade associations, and retailers in the C&D industry, data was gathered regarding current practices and barriers to broader-spread diversion of C&D. The project resulted in useful data for statewide planning for future C&D management programs. Click here for report.
