Sludge-to-Power in San Pedro

Hosted by

It takes 38 trucks to move 750 tons of treated solid waste every day from the Terminal Island Water Reclamation Plant up the road to a city-owned farm in Kern County.  A new project will cut those truck trips in half, reducing congestion and greenhouse emissions, and produce enough energy to power 3000 homes.  Lee Peterson is environmental and health reporter for the Daily Breeze.
