My History with recycling…
Yogi Berra - “If you don’t know where you
are going, you will wind up somewhere
else”

Federal Perspective
The FHWA policy is:
• Recycling and reuse can offer engineering, economic and environmental benefits.
• Recycled materials should get first consideration in materials selection.
• Determination of the use of recycled materials should include an initial review of engineering and environmental suitability.
• An assessment of economic benefits should follow in the selection process.
• Restrictions that prohibit the use of recycled materials without technical basis should be removed from specifications.

Federal Perspective (continued):
FHWA has a longstanding position that any material used in highway or bridge construction, be it virgin or recycled, shall not adversely affect the performance, safety or the environment of the highway system. This remains a cornerstone in our policy statement. In order to foster innovation and future development we support research, field trials, and project demonstrations showcasing the findings.

• Center for Environmental Excellence by AASHTO
– TERRI – Research Center Database
• Transportation Research Board

Federal Perspective (continued):
Recyclable Materials: baghouse fines,
various types of slag, fly ash, foundry
sand, kiln dusts, quarry byproducts,
reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP),
concrete material, roofing shingles,
scrap tires, waste glass, organic
material.

Federal Perspective (continued):
Summed up with one statement:
“Must have an equal or better
performance than the origin Product.”

Nevada DOT Perspective:
• Not all states are created equal.
– RAP usage in other states.
– Climate.
– Get in, get out, stay out.
• Nevada has ample supply of HMA and
concrete aggregates.

Nevada DOT Perspective:
Terminal Blend Asphalt:
• Terminal Blend Asphalt is a process of that completely incorporates and digests the tire rubber particle into the base asphalt binder. Polymerized AC is not affected by this process.
• Adapted 2 Modified AC tests to Terminal AC.

Nevada DOT Perspective:
Benefits of Terminal Blend:
• Acts as a polymer
• Resistant to oxidation and UV degradation
• Negligible cost increase
• Using Rubber Tires
Performance – time will tell
