Did you know that NRRA is filming a video about processed glass aggregate (PGA) and how it can be used in road and infrastructure projects?  About 65 communities in New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachusetts participate in NRRA's PGA program, which enables communities to consolidate their glass bottles and jars at host sites.  The glass is then crushed into an aggregate for local use.

Filming took place over three days at and around NRRA's PGA host sites in New London, NH and Rochester, NH. The film will be available this fall and will feature interviews with NRRA members about both their experience participating in NRRA's program and their experience using the resulting aggregate in municipal public works projects.  This film with be a modern version of an older PGA film NRRA worked with New Hampshire the Beautiful to produce decades ago.
