Rockingham County is proposing to use Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funding to complete a landfill gas capture system that will eventually be used to generate electricity. The funding will be used to install an electric blower, a gas collection system, and a flare to burn off any excess gas. The proposed landfill gas collection system will be installed on two out of three closed landfill cells and will also pull gas out of the currently open sub-title D landfill's leachate system.
