Renewable Fuels Reporting and Verification

The Role of Renewable Fuels in the Transportation Sector

A separate, but related element of the climate change/Greenhouse Gas reduction programs for California and Oregon include a requirement for fuel suppliers to reduce the carbon intensity of the fuels produced and supplied within the state at prescribed rates over time.  In general, fuel suppliers are required to report and have verified the type and quantity of fuels produced, imported, or exported within each state.

​

ALG’s extensive experience in air quality permitting and compliance in California, Washington, and Oregon, as well as in GHG reporting and verification, uniquely qualifies us to provide transportation fuel reporting or verification services to our clients.
