We are working on a large healthcare project in Minnesota. We're setting sustainability goals a bit late - no certification, but targets with accountability. I'm working to determine recycled steel content (for structural steel and rebar), and I've gotten a bit of push-back on recycled content based on being in the region of the Iron Range mines and potentially based on cost. For those working in the area - what recycled content have you achieved for steel - typically, and as a reach target? We also plan to target 100% U.S. or North American steel as well.
