COLUMBIA, La.–Strategic Biofuels, a renewable fuels project development company, announced the publication of its free resource, “A Practical Guide to Forestry Feedstock Under the Renewable Fuel Standard.” This practical guide will help project developers in understanding the compliance requirements for forestry feedstock with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations under the federal Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS). The publication was the culmination of work Strategic Biofuels conducted under a cooperative agreement signed with the USDA Forest Service in 2022. After realizing the guidance was unclear, Strategic Biofuels gathered input from the EPA, Weaver & Tidwell, the USDA Forest Service, and related industry stakeholders to develop this guide. It is aimed at identifying the practical qualification requirements for forestry feedstock to aid in establishing a strong set of standards for the tracking system that enables the forestry feedstock sector to supply raw data that can be validated by a third-party auditor for EPA compliance.
