Brookfield Resource Management, a scrap metal recycling firm serving New York City and Chicago-area markets, has purchased 10 acres of land in Wawayanda, N.Y., near its existing scrap metal yard. The company says it plans to build a regional recycling facility at the site that will include an auto shredder.
“The additional 10 acres complements the 38 acres we already own in Wawayanda and will enhance the integration of our proposed recycling facility into the local community,” says Tom Malone, president of Brookfield Resource Management, based in Elmsford, N.Y.
The property’s zoning would permit the recycling plant. Brookfield currently is seeking the necessary permits for its proposed facility.
The company says it hopes to secure necessary approvals and begin construction during 2011.
