Testimony on Indirect Land Use
Published Wednesday, June 10, 2009 at 04:59 AM
Also speaking at the EPA hearing was Manning Feraci, the Vice President of Federal Affairs for the National Biodiesel Board. Feraci said we recognize that law requires the EPA to consider significant indirect emissions when calculating a renewable fuel's emission profile. But, this does not require the EPA to rely on faulty data and to fabricate unrealistic scenarios that punish the U.S. biodiesel industry for wholly unrelated land use decisions in South America. He emphasized, - make no doubt about it - this is what the EPA's proposed rule does.
