IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
NW Portland Recycler Earns Award for Sustainability at State Conference GreenWay Recycling recognized by the Association of Oregon Recyclers

Construction material recycling has been an intrinsic part of green building since the concept was established 30 years ago. As a reflection of that, recycling credits have been a part of the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program since its start. However, there has been controversy around the credits since almost the beginning. To support the USGBC in ensuring the credits are properly awarded, for the past 15 years, the CDRA has engaged the organization’s Materials & Resources Technical Assistance Group (M&R TAG) to provide insight into the realities of C&D recycling.

To ensure the environmental benefits of recycled materials are properly factored into important policy decisions, CDRA members met with US EPA representatives and commented on the agency’s latest WARM Model revision v16.

During its board meeting on October 3, 2023, the board of directors of the Construction & Demolition Recycling Association (CDRA) named industry veteran Terri Ward as its Executive Director and CEO. Ms. Ward had been acting as a special advisor to the board’s executive committee and assumes her new role immediately.
