Abstract/Contents: | "In response to Michigan's ban on yard trimmings disposal, the Lansing-based Granger Companies in 1991 began operating the Great Lakes Compost Center adjacent to its Wood Street landfill. The company is a private hauler of refuse and recyclables. Great Lakes' first customer was the city of Lansing, which brought the yard trimmings collected curbside. The Center has expanded to take in materials from many generators, and it processes 30,000 compacted cubic yards per year." |
