Future-Proofing Waste Management at Ada County Landfill

Ada County Landfill in Idaho, serving a rapidly growing population of nearly 495,000, faced challenges in managing odor complaints and maintaining operational efficiency amidst expanding urbanization. With increased residential developments and evolving environmental regulations, the landfill required advanced solutions to uphold community trust and regulatory compliance. 

By adopting Envirosuite’s Omnis platform in 2023, Ada County Landfill transformed its environmental management practices. The platform deployed a real-time monitoring network to track key air quality parameters like hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), ammonia (NH₃), and particulate matter (PM). This data integration empowered landfill staff with comprehensive insights, enabling them to anticipate and mitigate odor emissions before they impacted surrounding neighborhoods. 

The Omnis platform introduced new functionalities, such as reverse trajectory modeling and continuous emissions monitoring, which have revolutionized how Ada County identifies and resolves potential environmental risks. With real-time data visualization, staff are now equipped to make timely, evidence-based operational decisions and share reliable information with regulatory bodies and the public alike.
