If the landfill owners wanted to use the natural gas to generate electricity instead, thereby preventing the methane from entering the atmosphere and displacing the fossil - fueled production of electricity, they would have to go through a costly and lengthy process of obtaining permits from regional, state, and federal officials as well as producing environmental impact reports.
