Our government contracting experience keeps USAEA at the forefront of technology
programs, energy policy and public and private funding as well as current
with the energy industry and research communities.

Through our parent corporation we manage a public-private partnership

brings investment to the project and shares in the equity of the property.
The landfill has now been closed and remediated, with a golf training facility
incorporated as part of the landfill cap. A state-of-the-art methane

federal and utility grants.
