John,

I think as someone who posts, I'm not interested in saving anyone -- but it is nice to have the facts -- all the facts good or bad for any company.

I think the Devens project is different because of the usage of sludge. My guess is if it were only organic waste, they'd be all for it -- but sludge carries other implications as to the toxicity, etc. (genuine fears or not -- it does have a stigma).

In Eastern Europe as well, from what I have heard (both company and personal sources), the smells of alternatives can be a lot worse (since the alternative to the dump will be composting). (And since there is legislation banning organic waste in landfills... as opposed to N.A.)

So in Eastern Europe -- the thermophillic process is by far the least worst solution of many. In N.A.'s case -- there's lots of land so the problem can be more or less deferred for a while.
