Landfill and Project Information
Landfill Methane Outreach Program (LMOP)
Instructions:
-Please update the data in the following worksheet(s), for the purpose of updating LMOP's landfill and landfill gas energy project database.
-Any data already contained in LMOP's database of landfills and landfill gas energy projects have been inserted into the fields.
-Please update or fill in the fields that have yellow background; the fields with blue background do not require edit.
-A project that has more than one end user and/or has changed in size over time has multiple worksheets; and a landfill that has more than
one project has multiple worksheets - in both cases, the landfill data are listed only once - in the first worksheet for that landfill (in the other
worksheets for that landfill, the rows for the landfill data are hidden).
-If your organization has been involved with additional landfills/projects for which a worksheet is not already included,
please make as many copies of an existing worksheet as needed to accommodate your other landfills/projects.
-As you make edits in the worksheet(s), the cells' formatting will change - this quickly shows LMOP what cells have been edited upon the file's return.
-If you consider any of the information requested to be confidential, do not provide that information and fill in "confidential" instead.
-Please email questions about this effort to EPA-LMOP@erg.com.
Thank you for your assistance!

What is the status of the LFG energy project? - Current project status (Operational, Construction, Planned, Shutdown, Candidate, Potential, Other)

Definitions of "Candidate", "Potential", and "Other" designations in LMOP database:
Candidate - Landfill is accepting waste or has been closed for five years or less, has at least one
million tons of waste, and does not have an operational, under-construction, or planned project; can
also be designated based on actual interest by the site.
Potential - Landfill does not meet the candidate definition, whether because of complete or
incomplete data. However, the landfill could have LFG energy project potential based on site-specific
needs or if data were complete.
Other - Landfill that previously had status of Potential with waste in place less than 500,000 tons and
closed >15 years.
On what date did or will the project become operational? - Date project became/is expected to become operational
If the project is shutdown, on what date did it shut down? - Date project shut down
LFG flow to project - Amount of landfill gas flowing to LFG energy project or that will flow to the project when it becomes operational
Capacity - Capacity for electricity-generating LFG energy projects
Capacity Type - MW capacity type options are Actual, Estimated, Rated, Other, Unknown
Capacity Description for Capacity Type of "Other" - Further description of the MW Capacity type if type is 'Other'
Who developed/is developing the project? - Name of project developer organization
Who is or will be the end user of the LFG energy? - Organization name of potential or actual end user of the landfill gas,
electricity, or waste heat recovered
List any other parties involved in this project - Organizations other than the landfill owner, landfill operator, project
developer, and end user that are involved in the project
What federal, state, or local funding resource(s) was or will be used to fund this project? - Names of funding
resources used or planned to be used to help fund the LFG energy project
The public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 5.4 hours per response.
Send comments on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested
methods for minimizing respondent burden, including through the use of automated collection techniques to the Director, Collection
Strategies Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (2821T), 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington, D.C. 20460.
