9 - On February 22, 2013 EPA issued a Final Rule adding several new fuel production pathways to the list of approved pathways under the RFS. - The rule establishes Camelina (Camelina sativa) oil as a feedstock for production of biomass-based diesel and naphtha and liquefied petroleum gas, and energy cane (certain hybrids derived from Saccharum spontaneum) as a feedstock for ethanol, qualified to generate RINs as cellulosic biofuels. - The rule also certified that renewable gasoline and renewable gasoline blendstock made from certain feedstocks such as crop residues and other waste products qualify as cellulosic biofuels, and clarified that renewable diesel explicitly includes jet fuel. 9
10 Hot Political Topic in DC Development of Quality Assurance Program ( QAP ) Increased Reliability, Liquidity, Future Value RINs listed on ICE, CME Group Increased Monitoring and Enforcement Small Business Compliance Policy QAP Audit provides factual basis Policy eliminates gravity portion of penalty EPA construes narrowly Opportunity to cure defects 10

14 If all criteria are met, EPA will waive 100% of the gravity components of the civil penalty. Criteria includes: 1) discovery is voluntary; 2) disclosure period is met; 3) violation is corrected. Revised policy expands the options allowed for discovering violations and establishes a time period for disclosure. Can obtain penalty relief if violations are discovered by any voluntary means in addition to discovery as a result of government sponsored on-site compliance assistance activities or environmental audits. Clarifies and lengthens disclosure period from 10 to 21 days. Late disclosure may be accepted in exceptional cases where there are complex circumstances. index.html 14
15 Foundation is AB 32, Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 Goal of AB 32 is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions ( GHGs ) to 1990 levels by 2020 California Air Resources Board ( CARB ) tasked to develop and implement regulations 15
16 Can stack credits with RINs LCFS requires 10% drop in Carbon Intensity ( CI ) of transportation fuels Establishes CI Baseline for Program Use Imposes Declining CI requirements Sets CI levels for various fuels Regulated party must meet CI standards Complicated system for assigning responsibility as Regulated Party Includes gasoline, diesel fuel, alternative fuels, CNG, LNG, electricity, hydrogen 16

19 Each 10g of reduction is worth.0125 per gallon when the carbon market price is $10 per ton. Thus, dairy digester CNG would provide about a 10 cent credit per gallon in a $10/ton market Recent market range = $30 to $40 per ton Dairy CNG in $35 market =.35 /Diesel Gallon Equivalent 19
20 Legal Challenges to LCFS decided in 2013 Poet, LLC v. California Air Resources Board (Cal. Ct. of Appeal, July 15, 2013) Rocky Mountain Farmers Union v. Corey (Ninth Circuit, Sept. 18, 2013) LCFS upheld in both cases. But remand to District Court in Rocky Mountain to apply balancing test. 20
21 New LCFS Pathways 16 new applications for Method 2 Fuel Pathways submitted in Includes pathways for biodiesel, biomethane, ethanol, renewable diesel, and LNG. 50 total applications pending for Method 2 Fuel Pathways. 1 Fuel Pathway proposed by ARB in 2013 for North American landfill gas. 21
22 LCFS Amendments Expect draft amendments to be released for public comment in fall Potential amendments include: Cost containment Indirect land use change values Credits for electric rail and forklifts Flexible compliance mechanisms LCFS reporting tool Enforcement Sustainability 22
23 LCFS Expansion Oregon Washington 23
24 Biofuels Credits Income tax credit Biodiesel or renewable diesel ($1.00/gallon) Small agri-biodiesel producer ($0.10/gallon) Second generation biofuel producer credit ($1.01/gallon) Income tax and excise tax Biodiesel mixture or renewable diesel mixture ($1.00/gallon) All of these expire 12/31/13 Liquefied Hydrogen Income tax and excise tax Liquefied hydrogen or liquefied hydrogen mixture ($0.50/gallon) Expires 9/30/14 24
25 On your flash drive! This guide draws on our experience in first-generation biofuels while focusing on the particular challenges and legal issues facing next-generation biofuels and biochemicals 25
