Randy Russell, Member since 2012
After a decade as a NCRA member, I feel that it’s time for me to step up my involvement, deepen my commitment, and run for the Board! I am Randy Russell and as a Zero Waste consultant and contractor in the Bay Area for 10+ years, I’ve been fortunate in providing sustainable materials management services to a variety of public agencies and private businesses:
• CalRecycle’s waste tire management program, market analysis and outreach
• Architect firms with continuing education on recycled-content building projects
• Leading or supporting residential and commercial waste characterization projects in CA, MN, and WA
• StopWaste with waste minimization grants assistance
• Several cities with AB941, AB1826, and now SB1383 rollout
• Local C&D debris management ordinance development
• Third-party verification of recovery performance at C&D debris recovery facilities
My run for the Board isn’t just about the value that I think I could bring to the table, it’s also about the value that I receive from NCRA: strengthening relationships with friends and colleagues in the industry, reinvigoration towards our common goals, education and awareness of policy, industry practices, and current events. One of the proudest accomplishments in my adult life was in service to NCRA with the support to make a Prop 67 campaign video as well as serve as a member of the NCRA Players. If elected, I will bring enthusiasm, creativity, and a collaborative spirit! Thank you in advance for your consideration.
