Tenney holds press conference at Madison County ARE Park and Landfill<\/strong><\/p>\n

Congresswoman Claudia Tenney (NY-22) toured the Madison County ARE Park and Landfill to see firsthand the economic impacts that new ARE Park\u00a0developments have had on the local economy. Madison County recently completed development of a sewer and water line in partnership with the city of Oneida, OCWA and the Madison County Industrial Development Agency.<\/p>\n

She was also briefed on plastics-to-energy technology which the Madison County Department of Solid Waste is exploring. Tenney was joined by James Zecca, director of the Madison County Department of Solid Waste.<\/p>\n

\u201cMadison County is at the forefront of developing and implementing state of the art technology to enhance\u00a0sustainability and\u00a0renewable energy,” Tenney said. “Under Madison County’s leadership, the ARE Park and Landfill has been a model operation for more than 40 years, and the\u00a0county continues to\u00a0develop forward thinking ways to take advantage of the ARE Park and Landfill to keep our communities clean.\u00a0During the tour of the facility, I had the chance to see firsthand the renewable technology used to dispose of waste and enhance the recyclability of materials. The innovative methods used to dispose of waste generate electricity and revenue for the county, and the surplus heat is used to heat the county’s recycling center during the winter months.”<\/p>\n

\u201cEnergy from our non-recyclable plastics and tires is\u00a0in our future in Madison County and we were happy to share\u00a0our vision with Congresswomen Tenney who\u00a0spent a lot of time with us asking many questions about the process of converting\u00a0non-recyclable materials into clean locally produced energy,\u201d\u00a0said\u00a0Zecca.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to thank Congresswomen Tenney for taking the time to visit our Agriculture and Renewable Energy Park,” said Madison County Board of Supervisors Chairman John M. Becker. “We look forward to her continued support in Madison County helping us recruit cutting-edge businesses.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
