[Digestion] Digestion Digest, Vol 5, Issue 6

Re Jason Perry's inquiry --
There is an operational multi-farm digester in Tillamook Oregon, run by the 
Port of Tillamook Bay.  Jack Crider is the contact person there.  All the 
manure to this facility is delivered by tanker truck and returned to the 
farms in the same manner.   There are two groups in Snohomish County, WA who 
are in various stages of feasibility for centralized digesters.  Neither is 
operational, but both are planned to be centralized systems for multiple 
farms.  Qualco Energy is one group, contact is Dale Reiner, and the other is 
Stanwood Bio Energy Producers (SBEP); There is an extensive in-ground 
pipeline system proposed for the SBEP project, for which we have done a 
feasibility assessment.  You can contact me directly for more details 
carolyn at resourceconsulting.us.   I would also be interested in hearing of 
other OPERATIONAL multifarm systems, if you are successful in locating them.
All the best,
Carolyn Henri
