Byron Sher Auditorium "2nd Floor"
Cal/EPA Headquarters Building

This full day event is designed for jurisdictions considering Anaerobic Digestion (AD) projects for the organic fraction of their urban waste stream. The forum will showcase project implementation progress in California, and highlight the benefits and challenges of AD technology.

Building on successful AD workshops of November 2009 and April 2010, the program will include case studies, permitting pathways, technology options and financing. The event is organized in collaboration with the California Biomass Collaborative, the California Organic Recycling Council, and the City of San Jose.

Who should attend: Jurisdictions considering anaerobic digestion projects, organics collectors, recyclers, and processors, consultants, vendors and other stakeholders. The forum agenda will be posted here in a few weeks.
