Recycling Today, June, 2002
The decision to close down a former U.S. Navy air base in southern California could bring up to three million tons of recycled concrete to the market.
Officials from the city of Irvine, Calif., have been consulting with concrete recyclers in the area to examine the feasibility of locating a recycling facility at the site of the former El Toro air base. The base, which once served U.S. Navy planes and pilots, contains several runways and taxiways made with thick, reinforced concrete.
According to the Orange County Register, Irvine city planner Dan Jung supports the recycling approach, which will open the land up for multiple uses, including a new city park.
