Northlake Auto Recyclers was the first salvage yard in Northern Indiana to go the extra mile to earn the Indiana Department of Environmental Management’s (IDEM’s) Indiana Clean Yard-Gold Level award in 2009. Theresa Bordenkecher, IDEM’s section chief over the Indiana Clean Yard program, awarded Marty Hollingshead, owner, with a certificate on Thursday at the facility at 105 Industrial Road, Hammond, Ind. “Since 2009, Northlake Auto Recyclers have been leading the industry down a better path,” said IDEM Commissioner Thomas Easterly. “We are proud to recognize them for their environmental leadership.
