Salem’s biosolids program, known as Biogro, formally began in 1975. The Biogro program oversees the beneficial reuse of Salem’s biosolids including contracts associated with digester cleaning, transport and application services.
The Biogro program manager is responsible for development of the program budget, beneficial reuse site authorizations, communication with clients, application strategies, the program’s future direction, active participation within the biosolids community, and all state and federal reporting and documentation requirements.
