Paving streets with trash eyed by federal agency plan
The Federal Highway Agency tests paving roads with incinerator residue from burned municipal trash as a low cost material. Described as rocklike ash and metals, the process reduces waste volume, limits odor, and could cut paving costs if economic studies prove practical. Demonstrations in several cities including Washington DC are planned with potential wider use after further studies.
