CEO – More Recycling
I appreciate the reason NRC was formed and believe it should be supported. I believe those of us with experience and passion should take a turn to serve the NRC so that it can be the clear for voice for recycling and ultimate resource efficiency. We are in the midst of rapidly changing times and our system needs support.

President, Container Recycling Institute
When I was elected to the NRC board in 2010, I worked with the NRC board and membership to move from a very precarious financial situation to one of stability. In 2018, we face new challenges like international recycling crises, falling recycling rates and plastic marine debris.
It would be an honor to be elected back to the NRC board, and face these new challenges with the new NRC board and diversity of NRC members across America.
Senior Director, Department of Commerce, Recycling Market Development Program
Chantal Fryer would like to ask for your support in electing her to the NRC Board as she would be a good Board asset for the National Recycling Coalition. With her service on other recycling-related boards, experience in recycling market development efforts, the economic impact of recycling, understanding of recycling as commodities, and her work in various campaigns to increase recycling, she will bring knowledge, expertise and value to Board discussions and programs. Her work with Your Bottle Means Jobs campaign to increase plastic bottle recycling in the Carolinas with a call to action of each household recycling two more bottles a week to help create 300 jobs locally is an an example of an initiative she is working on to help move the needle on recycling.

Executive Director, Carolina Recycling Association
Mary McClellan has served as the Executive Director of the Carolina Recycling Association (CRA) for 2 years. CRA is an avid supporter of the NRC and an active ROC member. She has proudly contributed to the recycling industry as an operations specialist for the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, as a local government recycling program manager, and in the private sector as a government liaison. These many roles have provided an in depth comprehension of the may motivations, interests, and moving parts that make up sustainable materials management. She believes that communication, truth, and clarity among all stakeholders are the key to progress and success in our industry. She has been involved with NRC in some capacity for over a decade and believes it is vital that as a nation, we have a national coalition that not only represents the interests of the industry but also provides an intellectual and professional hub for all stakeholders. She believes the NRC is the best and nerdiest national recycling organization around, and would like to keep it that way. Recycling Nerds Unite!

Vice-President of the Paper Recycling Coalition
The NRC has been an integral part of my professional life, from Capitol Hill, the White House’s Federal Environmental Executive and nearly two decades in the private sector. As co-chair of the Policy Committee I helped draft the Mission and Guiding Principles the guide the NRC and I am committed to those values. If elected I will do my utmost to ensure that the NRC fulfills its essential mandate.
Executive Director, Northeast Recycling Council
As a Board member, volunteerism in support of the NRC and its mission is essential for the organization to grow and thrive. I will bring the same energy and commitment to serving on the NRC Board as I have to being the Executive Director of NERC and the various initiatives I have had the privilege of participating in over the past 19 years.

Founder and Executive Director of the Construction & Demolition Association
Having me on the board will bring in the largest waste sector (by weight) in North America, where 74% of the material is recycled. It will also be a link to the industrial materials recycling, such as tires, foundry sand, etc. In addition, I will work with the staff to employ the tactics I learned building the CDRA in order to improve the internal operations of the NRC.
