MR Pilot Credit 87: Verified C&D Recycling Rates

Credit was straightforward. In our market, there is only one CORR-certified provider. Curious if that's the case in other markets.

There is also only one Recycling Certification Institute certified (IE:CORR-certified) facility in our Project area (Southern California). Wondering if RCI is still the only third party program in the US. Also wondering if their reach is growing.

I am curious about the availability of CORR-certified facilities in other markets too.  Here in the bay area we are up to five facilities.

Current count of Certified Facilities includes 2 in Ohio, none in Oregon, a Virginia and an Illinois and then several in CA.

This credit is challenging as there is only one Recycling Certification Institute certified (IE:CORR-certified) facility in our project area. There are currently two CORR- certified facilities in and around the western WA region.

As mentioned above, here in the bay area wehave  several CORR certified facilities. We also have facilities that have agressive C&D recycling methods yet aren't CORR certified So wondering what the difference in methods is between the CORR facilities and the one with agressive recycling methods.  Also, even though a general contractor uses a CORR facility they still need to be mindful about contaimination in their loads. If their loads are contaiminated their diversion rate will decrease. I wonder if this aspect should be considered with this pilot credit.

Agreed - my project is located in St. Paul, MN and there is only one qualifying facility in the state of Minnesota.
