I think that roscoedeadbea%26#039;s community has a great answer. I want our Governor here in Michigan to do the same. Tax the trash coming into Michigan from Canada. About 400 trucks a day, charge them $100 per ton. Just to the south of where most of trucks cross the bridge, there is a coal power plant. Run all this stuff through it, sell the power back to them. 11% 1 Vote

Agricultural waste (manure) is utilized as fertilizer where I live. There are regulations in place to control the rates of application, the slope of the land and proximity to surface waters, well intakes, etc. and requirements for incorporation into the soil to prevent vector attraction.

The same is done with biosolids, the sludge left over from wastewater treatment. Some is treated to reduce pathogens then applied to agricultural land in the same manner where it fertilizes crops. There is another classification called Exceptional Quality biosolids, that is treated above and beyond the typical standards, and is virtually pathogen-free and can be sold as to consumers as fertilizer. These all must meet state and EPA regulations.

The treated effluent from wastewater treatment plants could be used to irrigate golf courses, water lawns, etc. instead of going back out to the environment, and instead of using treated drinking water for these purposes. 0% 0 Votes
