SOAR Partners

Iowa Avian Resources Lance Christensen Spencer, IA                                                          
Iowa Avian Resources (IAR) recently completed new breeding chambers for Peregrine Falcons. IAR partnered with SOAR and the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) Solid Waste Alternatives Program (SWAP) . The facilities reused structural lumber, reused steel, reused doors, and is also installing a monitoring system that will make use of old television sets and cables. This type of construction saved 5 tons of materials from being land filled. IAR's future plans involve saving an entire house from being land filled. It will be moved to IAR's site and used for offices and intern and visitor quarters. For more information on SWAP go to their web site www.iowadnr.wmad.org
