Heard Farms is proposing to use $161,381 in State Energy Program funding to install floating covers on two waste processing lagoons in lieu of adding an additional 150 horsepower of aeration equipment. The lagoons are used for the processing of local and regional sewage, holding tank water, chemical toilet waste and grease trap waste from restaurants. The gases captured under the covers will be destroyed by flare, eliminating odor and high levels of greenhouse gases. The existing permit for the waste processing treatment facility has been amended to account for the proposed covers.
