distributors, and those involved in related activities understand procedures for handling and using biodiesel fuels. Biodiesel is manufactured from plant oils, animal fats, and recycled cooking oils and has several advantages. Biodiesel: • Is renewable • Displaces petroleum-derived diesel fuel • Can be used in most diesel equipment with
