More rubberized asphalt is coming to Perry County, Ind., with help from a grant from the state Department of Environmental Management, according to a report in the Perry County News (Tell City, Ind.).
The material will be used to pave more of the Perry County Solid Waste Management District’s recycling site and a nearby area in Cannelton, Ind.
A $15,045 grant from the Department of Environmental Management will build on a 2006 pilot project that paved part of the processing drop-off center, according to the report. According to the report, a track at Tell City High School was also paved with the rubber asphalt mix.
The material incorporates crumb rubber with regular asphalt.
