A brief description of programs, policies, infrastructure investments, outreach efforts, and/or other factors that contributed to the diversion rate for construction and demolition waste:

The majority of Bentley's C&D waste is handled directly by construction contractors. The trash and recycling handling is their responsibility as per the construction contracts. The number above includes the C&D from Bentley's normal waste contract as well as the reports received from the construction contractors on campus.


Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

Our method for C&D waste tracking is in it's infancy. We are not sure that this is all of the C&D waste created in FY2015. These numbers came from a retroactive report done by our contractor after projects are complete.
