Waste Commission General Manager Marc McLeod tells CHSJ News for a few years now they have been collecting the methane gas produced at the landfill and then generating electricity.
McLeod says the upfront cost of between 3.5 and 4 million dollars was substantial but now the landfill is netting something like 350 thousand dollars a year so, in the long run, it will turn out to be a worthwhile investment.
