Hi I am working on a project where 83.75 tons of granite slabs were removed from a site during site clean-up for the new bilding being built. It was re-purposed to a granite walkway on the site, which is a new parks facility along the Hudson in NYC. Would this fall under materials reuse or would it possibly fall into CWM, MRc2? If the block hadn't been re-purposed on site, it would have been hauled off site, diverted from a landfill and thus would have applied to the CWM credit. I am not sure where to apply it as it almost seems like it could be either and the line seems very vague between (at least to me...).

I believe you can count it toward both MRc2 and MRc3 so long as they were not originally used as a granite walkway. Read above under "Piggybacking credits". Because it was repurposed from onsite it seems you can count it for both.
