35	El Toro Project Challenges Adaptation of material specifications Acceptance of materials in engineered applications---structural Re-use and sustainable partnering Permitting and licensing at local level—restrictive to the general contractor and no exceptions for the re-use applications
36	Project Comparison Stapleton vs. El Toro Design and construction of materials of runway---commercial aviation vs. military Runway layout and site design Elimination of approx. 400K truck rounds import & export at El Toro vs. 600K at Stapleton 100% material re-use at El Toro vs. 1/3 material re-use at Stapleton due to Partner Planning & Application Engineering
37	Summary Project specific recycling on a major re-development project offers opportunities to utilize a major urban resource, reduce and eliminate disposal waste, reduce project impact on the community and dramatically reduce costs. Recycled Aggregates are proven to be of equal quality and in some cases are superior to virgin aggregates. Application Engineering, Value Engineering and Re-use planning concepts translate to near zero solid waste stream. Uniform acceptance and use should result from continued development of unilateral standards.
