Indiana University incorporates green principles in all phases of a building's life cycle and is dedicated to developing and renovating buildings that use resources efficiently and create healthy environments. https://cpf.iu.edu/capital-projects/leed-projects/index.html
Demolition specifications related to building construction and demolition state, "To the greatest extent possible and in compliance with state or federal rules and laws, items that can be reused, recycled or resold shall be separated from the waste stream and diverted to be reused, recycled or resold."
When possible, items are removed prior to demolition and sent to the IUPUI Surplus Store for resale and reuse. Other materials are reused in new buildings. As all new construction and major renovation is built to LEED standard certification, procedures are in place for the separation and recycling or reuse of non-hazardous materials and required for all related contractors for LEED Construction Projects.
