The Landfill Methane Outreach Program (LMOP), created by EPA as part of the United States’ commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, is a voluntary program designed to encourage and facilitate the development of environmentally and economically sound landfill gas (LFG) energy projects across the United States in order to reduce methane emissions from landfills. LMOP does this by educating local governments and communities about the benefits of LFG recovery and use; building partnerships between state agencies, industry, energy service providers, local communities, and other stakeholders interested in developing this valuable resource in their community; and providing tools to evaluate LFG energy potential. To continue to be successful it is critical that LMOP gather information from its Partners about their activities and how the program can improve its support to them. Additionally, in order for LMOP to improve the data quality in one of its critical program tools, the LMOP Landfill and LFG Energy Project database, LMOP must gather basic physical and operational data from municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills without LFG energy projects. Improving the data quality in this tool will enable LMOP to identify landfills that are good candidates for LFG energy projects, improve estimates of methane emissions from landfills, and help LMOP and its Partners prioritize LFG energy project development assistance activities.
