BIO urges readoption of Low Carbon Fuel Standard with changes.
2015-02-25 14:31:31| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
BIO is generally supportive of California's plan to readopt state Low Carbon Fuel Standard, but expressed concerns about certain aspects of law and their potential impact on production of low carbon biofuels. BIO is concerned that intensified reporting requirements could be particularly burdensome in time and cost to small and new low-carbon fuel producers. California Air Resources Board should ensure that new requirements do not inadvertently discourage small producers or innovation.
