Thank you Keith for your very thorough response. In my experience, the government has been quite helpful in assisting startups.
So in summary, if we decide to produce biodiesel and sell it for on-road use, we would need to: 1) Ensure that our fuel meets ASTM D-6751, presumably by having samples tested at a lab. 2) Track gallons sold and remit the appropriate state and federal taxes. If this is the case, I find it quite reasonable. It would be better if the taxes were reduced or eliminated of course. Count our organization in if any serious lobby is formed for this purpose. However, I can hardly fault the government seeking road taxes. Again, thank you for the excellent information. It is very much appreciated.
