Public Informational Meeting Announcement: SCRRRA Compost Facility
November 4, 2024:
PUBLIC INFORMATIONAL MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT
Presented by the Southeastern Connecticut Regional Resources Recovery Authority (SCRRRA)
OPEN TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC
AN INFORMATIONAL MEETING REGARDING: SCRRRA has proposed construction of a regional composting facility on the land it owns at 132 Military Hwy (Route 12) in Preston. The envisioned facility will create needed infrastructure for the composting of wood chips and food waste from our local communities, much of which is currently disposed of in the regular trash at very high expense. This facility will save Preston, and all SCRRRA’s 12 member towns, significant disposal costs, and produce a high quality, environmentally friendly soil amendment to replace manmade fertilizers. The project obtained approval from Preston Planning & Zoning in January 2024 and is currently pending permit approval from the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection.
WILL BE HELD AT: SCRRRA,7 Hurlbutt Rd Suite O, Gales Ferry, CT 06335
ON: Monday, November 25, 2024 at 6:00 PM
