Summary
This bill removes the requirement that motor vehicle diesel fuel must contain five percent biodiesel.
One concern regarding this bill might be that the use of biodiesel, a renewable energy source, may decrease in the state. Another might be that removing the requirement would be a step away from advances made for renewable energy use in New Mexico, making other steps in that direction more likely to follow.
