Project Background

Waste Management Collection & Recycling, Inc. is a solid waste disposal and recycling company. Waste Management operates a fleet of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and compressed natural gas (CNG) refuse collection trucks. The MSRC partnered with Waste Management to expand their existing L/CNG station at their Baldwin Park, CA facility to accommodate the refueling needs of their growing fleet of LNG and CNG trucks.

Other Information
Refueling infrastructure is an essential, enabling element of any successful alternative fuel emission reduction strategy. However, in an effort to avoid potential double counting of emission reductions, the air quality benefits of an alternative fuel strategy are assigned to the vehicle project element as opposed to the refueling station element of the project.
