Reported tonnage is from the most recent year (FY22).
We have finished constructing a 150,000 square foot Lab Science Building that is LEED certified. This has provided extra attention in tracking materials that are being recycled, donated, or otherwise re-purposed. We are in the process of constructing our second LEED certified building. The construction waste is being tracked by the contractors. We do not receive these figures and they do not reflect in our totals. Our totals are for university personnel, maintenance, and construction.
