LANDFILL TURN LANE
The Wood County Landfill
applied for and received $100,000 from an Ohio Department of Natural
Resources Market Development Grant to assist in funding construction
of two turn lanes on US Route 6 at the landfill site.
Construction was
completed November 2006.
The turn lanes are the
first in Ohio to use ground tire rubber asphalt on a highway
project. Approximately 3,000 Ohio tires were used. This
will enable the road to stay blacker longer which will melt snow
quicker and vehicles to run quieter. It will also reduce water
infiltration and therefore the road will last longer. |

LANDFILL METHANE
GAS
COLLECTION
PROGRAM
With $100,000 grant
funding from the Solid Waste District, the Wood County Landfill is
moving forward with the installation of a methane gas utilization
system
The methane gas collected
from the Landfill will be used to generate electricity, using an
external combustion Stirling engine.
We will be the first
landfill in the U.S. to generate electricity using a Stirling
engine.
