Our customers and contractors know that we are "obsessed" with ensuring that our programs operate safely and in full compliance with all laws and regulations.  Our programs have won several awards from government agencies. The Casella Waste Systems' Corporate Environment, Safety and Health Department conducts regular environmental and safety audits, in order to assure the highest degree of protection to New England Organics and our clients. 

Safety, Environmental & Regulatory Compliance

• New England Organics’ proven management systems systematically reduce the likelihood of accidents and the risk associated with accidents when they do happen.

• New England Organics has a near perfect safety and compliance record, which is all the more remarkable, given the risks of managing over 500,000 tons of residuals per year.

• Our facilities and operations have won major environmental awards from both the USEPA and the State of Maine.

• Our staff is personally dedicated to environmental improvement as is reflected in our practices, as well as our mission statement.

Performance Bonds & Guarantees

• New England Organics is a division of Casella Waste System, Inc., a regional company with revenues in excess of $500 million.  With this kind of backing, New England Organics can live up to its guarantees and weather changes in financial performance, the market, or regulations.

• New England Organics is able to secure performance bonds without difficulty, a testament to the confidence that the financial markets have in our company’s track record.  A bond offers our customers a full and independent guarantee.  Never in the history of our company has a bond been exercised.

Indemnification & Insurance

• Indemnification is offered and provides considerable protection to all customers of New England Organics, given the financial strength of the company.

• New England Organics maintains a full range of insurance requirements with limits readily available in amounts above $1 million.

Public Relations

• Land application and composting programs can become controversial, as is the case with all programs managing and recycling society's waste of all kinds. New England Organics’ policy of community education and involvement minimizes ill-informed and irrational public reaction to recycling efforts and maximizes articulate and well informed debate on this important subject.  We pay close attention to community relations and community partnerships, making every effort to educate and inform.  We even conduct local research and demonstration projects.
