  • Abstract:
    The Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA) has a commitment to maintaining at least 84 percent of the SHA pavement network in acceptable overall condition. The SHA also intends to increase the use of recycled materials and to use products in an environmentally responsible manner. One way of meeting these objectives is by incorporating recycled materials in an environmentally responsible project. As roads and bridges are resurfaced, old concrete is removed and is usually discarded. It would be in the best interest of SHA and the environment if these materials were recycled into an alternative use, such as to condition portions of the Chesapeake Bay bottom to support spat-on-shell aquaculture projects.
