Biomass Crop Assistance Program Update

From the August 2010 Forest2Fuel newsletter.

At the Florida Farm to Fuel Summit on August 12, William F. Hagy, III, Special Assistant--Director for Alternative Energy Policy at the U.S. Department of Agriculture told summit attendees that the final rule for the Biomass Crop Assistance Program will be released in three weeks. Hagy did not specify whether the 60-day Congressional review of the rule was already underway, or whether that 60-day period would commence once the rule is released. We suspect it is the latter. If our supposition is correct, the program will resume under the new rules in November. Hagy provided no details about the contents of the final rule.
