The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Solid Waste Permitting and Corrective Action Program is hosting three Dead Animal Compost Seminars beginning on May 3, 2023 in Moorcroft, May 4, 2023 in Torrington, and May 8, 2023 in Cody. Each seminar will begin at 10:00 a.m. and will conclude before 2:30 p.m.
During each seminar, Caitlin Youngquist with the University of Wyoming Washakie County Extension Office will provide participants with the basics of how to successfully compost whole animals, offal, or viscera. DEQ will also discuss solid waste permitting requirements and funding opportunities for composting operations. In the afternoon, in-person participants will gain hands-on experience constructing a compost windrow.
Please join us in person to take part in these unique hands-on training opportunities. A virtual option will be available for the classroom portion of each session. Registration is required and lunch will be on your own for in-person attendees. To register, please visit the DEQ website at https://deq.wyoming.gov/shwd/solid-waste/ and click on Training.
