Oh. "We applaud and thank President Obama and his administration, including Secretary Vilsack and EPA Administrator Jackson and her team, for their public support and due diligence in working with the biodiesel industry to implement these sustainable growth numbers. They have reaffirmed that RFS2 is working as intended for biodiesel and that it will continue to do so," Oh said. Since implementation of the biodiesel requirements under RFS2 in 2010, the U.S. biodiesel industry has a proven track record for supplying petroleum refiners and distributors with large volumes of quality advanced biofuel.
