Madison, Wisconsin USA - The Building Materials Reuse Association (BMRA) Conference on Deconstruction, Building Materials Reuse, and C&D Recycling will be held 14-16 May 2007 at Madison, Wisconsin USA.

Decon 07, run by BMRA and the USDA Forest Products Laboratory, is a national conference on deconstruction, building materials reuse, and construction and demolition debris recycling. It will be held at the historic Memorial Union on the campus of the University of Wisconsin in Madison. Decon 07 has been expanded to 3 days, so there will plenty of informative talks and lots of time for discussion. Tours and full day post conference workshops on deconstruction and C&D recycling are being planned in cooperation with WasteCap Wisconsin. Incorporation of reused and recycled materials into new and renovation construction will also be discussed. The past several years have shown tremendous growth and interest in deconstruction and the reuse and recycling of building materials. The BMRA is dedicated to transforming the way we build, renovate, and demolish structures for a resource-conserving future. Please plan to join us in Madison for this educational and fun experience!
