   Covanta Energy Corp. (Morristown, NJ) has signed contracts with the Connecticut municipalities of East Hartford, Guilford, Madison, and Newington under which Covanta will provide what the company is referring to as “sustainable waste management services” to the communities. The services that Covanta will provide encompass recycling and composting, as well as waste-to-energy and other waste disposal services. Covanta said that by bundling these services, the four communities will realize savings in the form of reduced disposal costs and rebates for recycling. “These towns did not want to landfill, and we heard them loud and clear,” said Steve Diaz, a vice president and regional business manager for Covanta. “Covanta’s infrastructure and strategic relationships in the region enable us to provide sustainable waste management solutions at affordable, stable rates.”
