The facility will produce bio-gas that may be used for utility pipeline injection and converted on-site to electrical and heat energy from a bio-gas fueled engine-generator system. The issuance of the new Solid Waste Facilities Permit will allow for the facility to operate as a Large Volume Transfer/Processing Facility.
