The program for the Annual Meeting of the Construction Materials Recycling Association (CMRA), Lisle, Ill., has been announced.

The meeting, scheduled for Jan. 19-22, 2003, at the Wyndham Resort & Spa in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., will be the 10th annual gathering of C&D recyclers from across North America.

CMRA executive director William Turley says the meeting is the best place to learn about the recycling of concrete, wood, asphalt, gypsum, asphalt shingles and metals generated at construction and demolition sites. It is also the best opportunity for C& D recyclers to interact with each other, says Turley.

The schedule includes sessions, speakers and an exhibit hall with information from industry equipment and service providers. A golf outing and a tour of the JR Capital Corp. C&D recycling facility also are scheduled.

Speakers include Thomas Kacandes of TKM Materials Inc., Montgomery, N.Y.; David Czechowski of the Portland Cement Association, Skokie, Ill.; Cleophas Jackson of the U.S. EPA; Michael Gross of Zanker Road Landfill, San Jose, Calif.; Robert Brickner of GBB Inc., Fairfax, Va.; and William Hinckley of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection.
