About This Document: For a variety of reasons most related to process control, regulatory compliance and neighbor acceptance -- an increasing number of composting operations are going "under cover." Covered composting, defined for this article as outdoor piles covered with a fabric, is not new. Companies such as Midwest Bio-Systems, GORE Cover Systems and CV Compost have been selling pile covers with and without aeration systems for many years. What is new, however, is increased scrutiny of air emissions from composting operations, primarily volatile organic compounds that can contribute to ozone formation. Air quality districts in California have issued or have proposed significant restrictions on emission of VOCs at composting sites. The Sechelt First Nation on the West Coast of British Columbia has jurisdiction over its lands and resources, and intends to increase its use of practices that enhance sustainability of the Nation. Steven Wisbaum, owner of Champlain Valley Compost Co in Charlotte, VT, has offered custom composting services to farms and other clients for over 15 years.
