We are 100% committed to ensuring that our programs operate safely and in full compliance with all laws and regulations. Our programs have won several awards from government agencies and the Casella Waste Systems' Corporate Environment, Safety and Health Department conducts regular environmental and safety audits, in order to assure the highest degree of protection to our staff and our clients.

Safety, Environmental & Regulatory Compliance

Our proven management systems systematically reduce the likelihood of accidents and the risk associated with accidents when they do happen.

• We have a near perfect safety and compliance record, which is all the more remarkable, given the risks of managing over 700,000 tons of residuals per year.
• Our facilities and operations have won major environmental awards from both the USEPA and the State of Maine.
• Our staff is personally dedicated to environmental improvement as is reflected in our practices, as well as our mission statement.

Performance Bonds & Guarantees

As division of Casella Waste System, Inc., with revenues in excess of $500 million annually, we can live up to our guarantees and weather changes in financial performance, the market, or regulations.

We can secure performance bonds without difficulty, a testament to the confidence that the financial markets have in our company’s track record. Never in the history of our company has a bond been exercised.

Indemnification & Insurance

Indemnification is offered and provides considerable protection to all customers, given the financial strength of the company.

We maintain a full range of insurance requirements with limits readily available in amounts above $1 million.

Public Education and Awareness

Land application and composting programs can become controversial, as is the case with all programs managing and recycling society's "waste" of all kinds. Our policy of community education and involvement minimizes ill-informed and irrational public reaction to recycling efforts and maximizes articulate and well informed debate on this important subject.

We pay close attention to community relations and community partnerships, making every effort to educate and inform. We even conduct local research and demonstration projects.
