In a recent vote, the Murfreesboro city council, in Tennessee, came to a unanimous decision to approve the next steps in the process for building a waste transfer station that will also turn trash into renewable energy.
This project, costing $65 million, is part of the commitment with WasteAway, the Tennessee-based company that specializes in covering waste is forms of biofuel.
Earlier this year, city officials came to an agreement with WasteAway and allocated $2.5 million for the design of the transfer station and renewable energy facility.
