ABSTRACT The Atlantic County Utilities Authority (ACUA) has two divisions, Solid Waste and Wastewater, and holds as its mission to be an environmental leader responsible for enhancing the quality of life for its residents through the protection of waters and lands from pollution by providing responsible waste management services. ACUA's mission is accomplished via the use of new technologies, innovations and employee ideas. These technologies include the use of sustainable landfill technologies and waste diversion strategies. Wastewater, the most energy intensive of the two divisions, now derives the majority of its energy from on-site renewable sources. ACUA was also the first New Jersey organization to join the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX). CCX is the world's first and North America's only legally binding, voluntary greenhouse gas (GHG) emission registry, reduction and trading system. Additionally, ACUA is developing several projects. At Wastewater, two beneficial reuse projects are underway: a Category I in Smithville, NJ and a Category IV for Marina Energy in Atlantic City, NJ. Both projects are anticipated to be operational by 2010 and process a combined 155 million gallons of water per year. At the Environmental Park, there are two exciting projects anticipated for development in 2009: a compressed natural gas (CNG) station and a landfill solar project.
