A brief description of the time period from which the figures reported above are drawn:
Data reflects Fiscal Year 2020. Due to the pandemic, most courses were virtual and most employees were teleworking, so there was no need to order and purchase additional paper for this period.
All of the paper we procure is between 30-35% recycled. Any greater recycle content jams in the machines.
The paper is purchased through a State contract that is used by all Agencies and has been competitively bid in the open market.
