<p> ALLOWAY TWP. Not much was changed at the annual
reorganization meeting for the Salem County Utilities
Authority, but that doesn't mean no changes will be
seen this year at the McKillip Road facility the authority
operates. </p>
<p>John Hall, who was reappointed to his position as chairman
of the authority, said 2008 will be an exciting year. </p>
<p> "The main thing is we are looking to move
forward," Hall said after Monday night's meeting.
"We're really excited about moving forward with
the college." </p>
<p>The <b>Gas to Glass</b> Initiative will see the open field across
the street from the landfill transformed into <b>a new
glassblowing facility for Salem Community College</b>. </p>
<p><b>The learning environment will be powered by methane gas
produced from trash at the landfill. <br>
</b></p>
<p><b>The gas will be
captured, cleaned, and put to use rather than released into
the air.</b> </p>
<p>Construction will begin as soon as weather permits and an
opening is scheduled for <b>September 2008</b>. </p>
<p> "This is really important to us," Hall said.
"It's one of the biggest projects we've had
in a long time." </p>
<p>He's mostly excited about what a great opportunity it
is for SCC. </p>
<p>DCO Energy will pipeline the methane at no charge to the
college. <br>
</p>
<p>SCUA will also pay the approximately $2 million to
build the facility for SCC. </p>
<p>Hall believes this project will benefit Salem County as a
whole, which is another SCUA goal for 2008 "To be a
good neighbor," he said. </p>
<p>Taxpayers are in a bind, he said, and he wants to make sure
not to pass any additional costs on through municipal
tipping fees while at the same time remaining competitive
for commercial haulers. </p>
<p> "We're looking to save as much money as we can
and be fair to the residents," Hall said. </p>
<p>Also this year, SCUA will concentrate on the permitting
process for its anticipated expansion. </p>
<p>That process will take at least a year. </p>
<p>SCUA Executive Director Michael Chapman explained the
expansion would essentially double the capacity of the
facility. </p>
<p> "In the DEP's eyes, it's a new
landfill," Chapman said. </p>
