What are the opportunities for waste reduction and recycling in the
residential building industry?  How about the purchase of used and
recycled-content building products?  What are the job and economic
development implications in promoting building industry recycling in your
jurisdiction?  This program is a must for anyone concerned with C&D waste,
and what to do about it.  Do not miss this first time gathering of experts
who will discuss case studies and methods for waste reduction, recycling,
and reuse in the residential building industry.

During the morning session, experts will be organized in three panels to
provide an overview of the subject with emphasis on the opportunities,
issues, and barriers.  The afternoon session will be a facilitated planning
session to outline a strategy to promote building industry recycling in the
Mid-Atlantic region.   The participants will include the morning presenters
and community leaders, entrepreneurs, and public officials involved in solid
waste, recycling, reuse, and economic development.
