Subject | Comments on the Draft Environmental Analysis for the Proposed Strategy for Achieving Calif |
Comment | To assess the air quality impacts, these new CASP emissions from 53 to 74 new facilities can be compared to the landfilling baseline. Using standard industry practices, we have calculated that avoided landfill emissions of VOCs are 1.9 times greater that the VOCs emitted from CASP compost facilities. The net benefit of diverting organics from the landfill to CASP compost facilities is almost 2 times greater than baseline conditions. The comments in the section copied above needed to reflect that only CASP composting will be utilized for new compost facilities, and that VOCs will not increase above baseline, but instead will be cut in half. Plus, the compost industry is in the midst of electrifying their off-road heavy-duty grinders and trommels, and that there will also be a new reduction in those emissions contrary to the statement copied above |
