EPA Landfill Methane Outreach Program
The EPA Landfill Methane Outreach Program, a key
component of the United State's Climate Change
Action Plan, encourages the use of landfill gas (LFG)
as an energy resource. EPA assists utilities,
municipal and private landfill owners and operators, tribes, and state
agencies in reducing methane emissions from landfills through the
development of profitable landfill energy recovery projects. Methane
captured from landfills can be transformed into a cost-effective fuel source
for electricity, heat, boiler and vehicular fuel, or sale to a pipeline. EPA
estimates there are approximately 200 landfill methane recovery projects
in the U.S. and that up to 750 landfills could install economically viable
landfill energy projects.
The Landfill Methane Outreach Program includes five important
components: the State Ally, Energy Ally, Industry Ally, Community
Partner, and Endorser programs. EPA establishes separate alliances with
state agencies, energy providers (including investor-owned, municipal and
other public power utilities and cooperatives), key trade and public sector
associations, members of the landfill gas development industry (including
developers, engineers, equipment vendors, and others) and local
communities, municipalities and landfill owner/operators through a
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). By signing the MOU, each
Ally/Partner acknowledges a shared commitment to the promotion of
landfill gas-to-energy recovery at solid waste landfills, recognizes that the
widespread use of landfill gas will reduce emissions of methane and other
gases, and commits to undertake activities to enhance development of this
resource. In return, EPA agrees to provide landfill gas-to-energy project
assistance and public recognition of the Allies' and Partners' participation
in the program.

Introduction
Since 1994 the U.S. EPA's Landfill Methane
Outreach Program (LMOP) has participated in an
ongoing effort to gather information on Municipal
Solid Waste landfills (MSW). A key component of
the LMOP is to provide MSW landfill owners and
operators, project developers, utilities, and other
potential project participants with information on
MSW landfills that may offer attractive energy
development opportunities. This document presents
state specific landfill information, hereinafter referred
to as the landfill profiles. These profiles are useful to
evaluate the potential for developing landfill gas-to-
energy projects (LFGTE). EPA assembled this
information from state and local sources as well as
various national solid waste publications, landfill
owners and operators, and project developers.
The EPA has prepared a separate document to
describe the methodology used to develop the state-
specific landfill profiles and estimate the benefits of
using LFGTE as an energy source. The document,
Landfill Gas-to-Energy Project Opportunities,
Background Information on Landfill Profiles,
contains background information on gas collection
and use, describes the data fields according to the five
sections listed on the landfill profiles, and where
applicable, illustrates calculations and default values
used to derive estimates. EPA strongly recommends
that users read the document prior to using the
landfill profiles. Users can obtain the document by
calling the LMOP hotline at 1-888-STAR-YES.
Data Sources
EPA-ORD Landfill Gas Utilization-Survey (Thomeloe,
1997)
Directory and Atlas of Solid Waste Disposal Facilities
(SWA, 1994)
Implementation Guide for Landfill Gas Recovery Projects
in the Northeast (SCS, 1994)

1994)

Landfill Classification
To facilitate the use of available landfill information,
EPA has categorized the landfills into five categories:
Current Project,1 Candidate Project, Shutdown, Other,
and Unknown waste-in-pi ace (WD?). These categories
are based on the status of the landfill's LFGTE
project(s) and WIP. The generation of methane is a
function of many factors, the most critical being the
amount of waste-in-place and the number of years the
waste has been in the landfill. Peak methane
generation occurs soon after closure; therefore, the
longer the landfill has been closed, the less attractive it
becomes for methane recovery. Based on the general
timing of peak methane generation, EPA assumes that
landfills that ceased accepting waste prior to 1993 have
a low probability of generating enough methane to
make a gas recovery project economical. Consequently,
landfills need to be operating in 1993 to be considered
as having a Candidate Project.
Landfill Categorizes
Current Project:
Landfill with operational LFGTE project or landfill with
LFGTE project under construction.
Candidate Project:
Landfill with a potential or planned LFGTE utilization
project; or
Landfill is currently operating or closed after 1993; and has
more than 1,000,000 tons of municipal solid waste-in-
place.2
Shutdown:
Landfill with shutdown LFGTE project.
Other:
Landfill has less than 1,000,000 tons of municipal solid
waste-in-place with no current or planned LFGTE project.
Unknown WIP:
Landfill with insufficient data to determine the waste-in-
place.
State Summary
State-specific landfill profile information is
summarized in three exhibits. Exhibit 1 presents a
summary of the state-specific potential for LFG
utilization energy by landfill category. Exhibit 2
summarizes the emissions avoided by fossil fuel
displacement for electricity generation and direct use
projects. Exhibit 3 presents an index of the state-
specific MSW landfills, referenced by category,
landfill name and general characteristics.
1 Current projects illustrate the wide range of successful project development options.
2 By modeling the relationship between WIP and methane generation, a cut-off of 1,000,000 tons of WIP was
established; landfills having at least 1,000,000 tons of WIP are considered candidate landfills.
