Seattle’s food scrap recycling boosted its waste diversion to 90 000 tons last year and helped push a 53.7 percent recycling rate but Cedar Grove Composting faces major odor complaints from residents and officials. The Everett and Maple Valley facilities draw scrutiny from Puget Sound Clean Air Agency and local lawmakers. The company notes odor variation by time and source and has invested in monitoring and odor control while appealing $169 000 in fines from 2009 and 2010.
