SUCCESS — Northern Biogas expects to begin construction this August on a $35 million renewable natural gas facility that will convert raw gas generated by the Mount Carberry landfill into clean natural gas. The project is expected to generate millions of dollars in revenue for the Androscoggin Valley Regional Refuse Disposal District, which owns and operates the Mount Carberry landfill.

Northern Biogas official Robert McHale appeared before both the Coos County and Berlin planning boards in recent weeks to conduct conceptual reviews of the project. He said his company’s subsidiary, Mt. Carberry Project, LLC, will construct the facility on land owned by the district and leased to the company.
