Greetings compost world,

I am looking for any state-issued (or at least sanctioned) guidance
documents on managing runoff from compost sites, especially compost sites
handling yard debris and food waste. 

Also, I am very interested in any good studies on compost site runoff.  The
two I am aware of are 

.         Clean Washington Center, "Evaluation of Compost Facility Runoff
for Beneficial Reuse", prepared by E & A Environmental Consultants, May 1997

.         Krogmann, U., "Selected Characteristics of Leachate, Condensate,
and Runoff Released During Composting of Biogenic Wastes", Waste Management
and Research, Vol. 18, 2000

Thanks,

Cary
