Mid-Atlantic Biosolids Association

The Mid-Atlantic Biosolids Association (MABA) is a non-profit organization devoted to promoting the use of sewage sludge as fertilizer. MABA was founded in 1998.

Involvement in San Francisco Sludge Controversy
In March 2010, MABA sent a letter to Mayor Gavin Newsom of San Francisco supporting the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission's sewage sludge compost giveaway program. In the letter, they claim that "biosolids use on soils, in accordance with regulations, presents negligible risk."
