US: The Port of Long Beach authority has published a final study on a proposal to demolish Gold Bond Building Products’ Long Beach gypsum wallboard plant at the port in Florida. The report concluded that the demolition could have ‘less-than-significant’ impacts on the environment. Construction & Demolition Recycling News has reported that Gold Bond Building Products' lease for the site ended in November 2024. As a result, the company must now return it to a condition ‘equivalent to or better than’ that at the start of its lease. The Long Beach Board of Harbor Commissioners will discuss the outcomes on 12 January 2026.
