When checking out the Carpet & Rug Institute's website... 
  
They have a program titled: 
"Carpet America Recovery Effort (CARE) 
Ground-breaking initiative that develops market-based solutions for the recycling and reuse of post consumer carpet" 
http://www.carpetrecovery.org/ 
  
Which had a link to the EPA program "Jobs Through Recycling" 
that list market development programs all across the country:

Market Development programs have been solving many problems with hard-to-recycle materials by providing grant money (normally as matching funds) to communities partnering with businesses to find market based recycling solutions.
