) honored one company and one government agency for their achievements in C&D recycling at the association's Annual Meeting at the C&D World Show in January.

The association gave out awards in two categories. The first was for Concrete/Asphalt Recycler of the year. The 2007 winner is a facility located on a waterfront and industrial parcel in Woodbridge, N.J.

The job of StopWaste.Org is to reduce the county's waste stream. StopWaste.Org is the Alameda County Waste Management Authority and the Alameda County Source Reduction and Recycling Board operating as one public agency. Like many solid waste agencies, it is funded from a fee generated from the local landfills. But StopWaste.org has truly tried to work to reduce waste going to the landfills, and strongly promotes recycling and reuse, especially in C&D, according to Turley.

The county agency was one of the first to develop a model ordinance for its cities and municipalities to use to promote C&D recycling. The state of California itself followed its lead nearly five years later.
