Dallas' McCommas Bluff Landfill

After our healthy lunch at Chicken Scratch, we visited Dallas' McCommas Bluff Landfill located at 5100 Youngblood Rd, Dallas TX 75241.  Our tour guides are Dana & Jonathan.

Their duties include:

• Environmental Regulation compliance
• Pollution prevention
• Continuum Improvement

City of Dallas is taking advantage of yearly 1.2 million ton of trash and converting it to methane gas through the Landfill Methane Outreach Program.  Renewable energy from methane gas supply natural gas to over 90,000 homes.

Dana & Jonathan also informed us about Dallas Eco Park.  Currently, the City of Dallas is working on partnership with industries in increasing waste diversion education programs.  They are seeking academic institutions to partner with the city for Environmental study.

We parted with a nice gift bag with goodies to remind us to recycle.
