FUELING WASHINGTON WITH BIOPRODUCTS:
WSU-PNNL-WSDA
The newest Briefing Paper is posted on Olympia Update
No. 5:
http://www.olympia.wsu.edu/News/2007_News_Five.stm A $6.7 million
comprehensive research program that promotes manufacture of fuels
from Washington-grown crops and forest products was supported by
President Lane Rawlins in discussions with the governor’s
budget staff here in Olympia. The 2006 Legislature assisted new
fuel plants being built in this state to relieve reliance on foreign
petroleum products. But some of these plants still rely on palm
oil and other “feedstock” materials imported from countries
like Indonesia, Malaysia, and Canada.
