Summary
The Landfill Gas Act of 2006 (H.R. 5027) proposed a new tax credit for businesses that produce high-energy natural gas from biomass, specifically at landfill facilities. By providing financial incentives for the production of "high Btu" fuel, the bill aimed to encourage the capture and conversion of waste gases into usable energy. For citizens, this legislation was intended to promote the development of alternative energy sources and reduce the environmental impact of landfills by repurposing methane and other byproduct gases.
