As a state agency, Alfred State is covered by Executive Order 4, which, among other things, requires that "all copy paper, janitorial paper and other paper supplies purchased by each State agency or
authority shall be composed of 100% post-consumer recycled content to the maximum extent practicable, and all copy and janitorial paper shall be process chlorine-free to the extent practicable, unless such products do not meet required form, function or utility, or the cost of the product is not competitive." We are required to report annually on our compliance with the Order. Employees in charge of purchasing office paper for Alfred State are aware of and follow these requirements.
