The Connecticut Resources Recovery Authority (CRRA) culminated the final phase of the Hartford Landfill closure, completed in June 2014, with a 40-acre cap utilizing ClosureTurf, a revolutionary three component erosion control closure system, topped by six acres of solar panels. After a 73-year existence as an “eyesore,” the state-owned landfill is now an example of innovation in renewable energy for future landfill closures in Connecticut and across the nation.
