If a current proposal by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for marine vessels is approved, all harbor vessels, supply boats, fishing vessels, ferries, excursion vessels, tugboats, barges and dredges in California will be required to use either 99 percent or 100 percent renewable diesel. According to a November 18 report by transportation fuel consulting firm Stillwater Associates, the requirement does not come from the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, Califor- nia's carbon-credit program. Instead, it comes from a little-noticed submittal to the state's Office of Administrative law, titled "Section 2299.5. Low Sulfur Fuel Requirements, Emission Limits and Other Requirements for Commercial Harbor Craft." |
