The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality recently announced that it has completed the removal of more than 400,000 scrap tires at the former G & G Tire Recycling facility in Flint, Mich. The project was conducted through the DEQ’s Scrap Tire Cleanup Grant program.
The cleanup project began in 1999 with the awarding of a DEQ grant. The agency followed with annual grants from 2001 through 2005.
Entech, Inc., a White Pigeon, Mich., scrap tire processor, completed work on the site by removing the final 109,430 scrap tires.
