This five-year project included two parts. The first part was the expansion of the Park Forest Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) facility, including design and construction of a new CNG facility in Homewood to provide 30 fill stations plus 3 filling stations for public access. The project also funded the replacement of 60 diesel powered refuse haulers with 60 CNG refuse vehicles. The vehicles purchased collect refuse and recycling materials, as well as, construction debris in 78 communities in Northeast Illinois.
