Description

Examining material removed from a mattress for recycling on January 18, 2012.

Cotton and bed springs from the mattresses are baled and sent off site. The wood is used to create furniture and the mattress material is used to make quilts. The facility was honored by EPA for reducing its volume of solid waste through innovative and aggressive recycling programs. EPA presented a WasteWise State Government Partner of the Year Award to the correctional facility on January 18, 2012.
