Commercial Biodiesel Station Opens As City Takes Lead in Biodiesel Conversion

E. "Doc" Smithbyline‚ Apr. 25‚ 2007

At the opening of the City's first fleets-only biodiesel fueling station yesterday, Mayor Gavin Newsom called on “every municipality in the country to do what we have done” as he highlighted the City’s remarkable progress in converting its own fleet of diesel vehicles to a biodiesel fuel blend and in moving toward a Fall launch of the PUC’s program to provide some of that fuel by recycling grease from restaurants. Newsom also announced that all of the recycling trucks that operate in the City are now running on a biodiesel blend.
