Twenty years ago, the Fresh Kills Landfill in Staten Island was a mess. With four mountains of trash, the dump held 150 million tons of garbage.  ...

Challenges include lack of personal protection equipment and increasing amounts of waste.

The project will nearly double renewables production.

Vermont, Michigan, New York, New Hampshire, California and Connecticut are some of the states testing and investigating PFAS in landfills.

New Hampshire House Bill 1319 would prohibit siting or expanding new landfills near state parks and federal lands.

Republic Services will use up to $5.9 million in upgrades and expansion at its Gregg County landfill over the next three years.

The plant will convert methane gas into roughly 80 million gallons of RNG per year.
