October 14, 2003Veneman Announces Biodiesel Education Grants USAgNet
Agriculture Secretary Ann Veneman announced the selection of two organizations that will receive $960,000 in grants to work together as partners to conduct a biodiesel fuel education program.
"These grants are an important step in expanding the economic prospects and environmental promise of renewable energy," said Veneman.
The National Biodiesel Board was awarded $770,000 to create educational programming and the University of Idaho was awarded $190,000 to provide technical support for the effort. The purpose of the grants, which were awarded on a competitive basis, is to develop an educational program to target governmental and private entities that operate vehicle fleets.
The program will address issues previously identified by fleet operators and other potential users of this alternative fuel, including the need to balance the positive environmental, social and human health effects of biodiesel consumption with the increased cost per gallon. In addition, these grants will be used to inform other interested groups and the general public about biodiesel fuel use.
