Biosolids Management Services

Biosolids benefit agriculture, the economy, and our environment. MES facilities beneficially reused approximately 60% of our biosolids, or 24,000 tons of material, in 2016. After meeting the appropriate U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Maryland State standards, biosolids can be recycled and used as a fertilizer and soil amendment. Biosolids are rich in nitrogen and phosphorus and contain other micronutrients for plant growth.
