DNR posts new Composting web pages

For facilities interested in composting food or yard waste: DNR recently posted new Web pages with information on composting at large-scale facilities and on farms. These pages give an overview of different composting methods, an explanation of Wisconsin's rules and regulations for composting operations, information on requirements for compost use and marketing, and links to additional resources. We hope these resources will raise awareness about the importance of composting yard materials, food scraps and other organics and provide the information businesses and local governments need to increase diversion of organic materials and produce good quality compost.
The new pages are available at
