At the SJCC our commitment to environmental protection informs our policies, impacts our daily practices and inspires a future we can all be proud of.
Recycling
Our extensive facility wide recycling program recovers a wide variety of materials. All operations participate in our Solid Waste Management Program, separating paper products and blue-bag recyclables from regular refuse.
