That amount is an equivalent of nearly 75% of the Northwest's regional scrap tire generation for the last 20 years, or the equivalent of more than 38 years total generation for the state of Oregon.  Included in these numbers are approximately 10 million scrap tires from stockpile cleanups where the team was contracted to remove, transport, and recycle or dispose of the tires from at least 137 previously permitted, illegal, and/or indiscriminate piles in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. The Northwest's largest public liability cleanup of over 5 million tires at the Winlock, Washington site was completed on March 31, 1998.
