Indianapolis auto salvage yard earns Indiana Clean Yard-Gold Level award

The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) has presented Pull-A-Part's Indianapolis location with the Indiana Clean Yard-Gold Level award. This marks the seventh time the location has received this designation.

According to a news release from IDEM, the award recognizes Pull-A-Part’s efforts to protect the environment. IDEM partnered with the Automotive Recyclers of Indiana Inc. to develop both its Indiana Clean Yard recognition program to recognize auto salvage yard operators who meet two different levels of requirements: Indiana Clean Yard and Indiana Clean Yard-Gold Level.

According to IDEM’s website, the Indiana Clean Yard-Gold Level award is a higher level of recognition than the Indiana Clean Yard award, which is achieved by using best management practices and having a stormwater pollution prevention plan.

IDEM Senior Environmental Engineer Hani Sharaya presented a commemorative certificate to Pull-A-Part Chief of Production Operations Gabriel Boateng and Pull-A-Part Retail Manager Steve Jones during a site visit July 27.
