Nyob rau xyoo 2017, ntxiv rau kev sau cov zaub mov khib nyiab, Koog tsev kawm ntawv switched rau ib compost organics program thiab tam sim no sau cov zaub mov-av, cov ntaub ntawv uas tsis yog-recyclable ntaub ntawv xws li napkins, ntawv phuam, ntaub so ntswg thiab tej certified compostable khoom yuav muab xa mus rau specialized Environmental Technologies (SET). TEEV yog ib qhov chaw loj compost hauv Rosemount, MN Qhov twg lub tsev kawm ntawv cov zaub mov khib nyiab yog sib xyaw nrog vaj khib nyiab thiab muab rau hauv nutrient-dense compost li 3-6 lub hlis. Compostable hnab siv nyob rau hauv cov organics program. Cov hnab no yog sourced zos los ntawm lub tuam txhab hu ua Natur-Tec raws li ntawm no nyob rau hauv Minnesota.
