US EPA awards $200 000 to San Francisco City College to promote biodiesel

The US EPA has awarded $200 000 to the San Francisco City College to promote biodiesel in the city and the state.

The grant will be used to bring together a consortium of bio-diesel advocates to help develop distribution and fueling infrastructure and provide classroom training to fuel distributors, mechanics and users.

Wayne Nastri the EPA's Administrator for the Pacific Southwest region said:

"This grant gives City College of San Francisco a unique opportunity to help jump start the use of biodiesel in the Bay Area. Bringing biodiesel into mainstream use provides a homegrown fuel source that improves air quality and reduces the impact of waste oil to our waterways."

There are plenty of people in and around San Francisco Biofuels scene  who I'm pretty sure would be happy to help.
