However, in November 2014, the MP also started to generate biogas,which was initially of very poor quality and was thus burned in the flare. However, in March 2015, the MP biogas was approximately
50% methane in March 2015 and approximately 70% methane by June of that year. Thus, beginning in late April 2015,biogas from the MP has been extracted at rates of 30–36 m3 per day (personal communication from the MSWP operator responsible for the landfill gas management).
