I am working on a C&S project and I am trying to figure out the expected volume of recycling for the building. I've contacted local waste haulers but is there somewhere else that i can find projects and their respective expected volume of recycling?

Jason,
You can provide your own estimate for this, based on your own assumptions and past experience. If you can find comps to back that up, great, but don't get too bogged down with that. In my experience, reviewers are just looking for a sound justification / take-off / estimate that reflects having put some thought into designing and allocating space for recycling. Programming, estimated FTE, frequency of pick-up and the waste streams that can be recycled are a few of the things that might make your project's needs unique.
