Methane move

SENNETT - Cayuga County received $1.5 million Monday morning for a project that federal, state and local officials believe will benefit business and environmental sectors in the area.

A regional methane digester, which has an anticipated groundbreaking date of spring 2006, will use manure from area farms and food processing waste to power several county office buildings on County House Road, where the digester will be located.

The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority presented the Cayuga County Soil and Water District with a check for $1 million; the U.S. Department of Agriculture handed the county's public utility agency another for $500,000.
