C&D Survey
The survey of the Construction & Demolition Sector of the Resource Recovery Industry is funded by the Department of Environment and Climate Change NSW (DECCW). The survey is undertaken annually by the Waste Management Association of Australia (WMAA). Two years of data is now available (2006/07 and 2007/08) and WMAA is also tasked with implementing the 2008/09 survey.

The data in the reports provided below is posted here with the permission of DECC. The report was prepared by WMAA. The primary purpose of the survey and associated report is to inform DECC on the progress of existing projects to develop markets and increase the recovery of resources from the Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste stream. The survey also gathers information critical to informing industry development activities, establishing supportive government policies and preparing industry based applications for grant funding.

The survey gathers data from businesses that recover resources from the C&D waste stream in the state of New South Wales (NSW). Recovery data is self-reported by industry. Neither WMAA or DECC is able to verify the accuracy of the information provided. Historically the survey achieves approximately 75% response rate, which is particularly high for a voluntary survey.
