The Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community (SMSC) has operated a turned windrow composting facility in Shakopee, Minnesota, since 2011, quickly reaching its 70,000 tpy capacity due to increasing food waste diversion mandates. To meet growing demand, SMSC invested in relocating and expanding the operation. This presentation will detail the challenges faced in site selection, permitting, regulatory compliance, and community engagement. The new Dakota Prairie Composting facility, set to open this spring, will use the Aerated Static Pile method to process 212,500 tpy, ensuring high-quality compost production while maintaining service continuity.
