Construction and demolition data is taken between June 2019 and January 2021. Projects include the construction of the new Physical Science Building and other projects on campus.

In total, CSU Chico was able to recycle roughly 51% of materials used for construction and demolition for these projects across campus.

Our two most recent construction waste instances were the construction of the Physical Science Building (2020) and the ongoing construction of the Butte II building (2021-2022).
