摘要

As the National Biodiesel Board and the biodiesel indusuy celebrate their 20th anniversary, NBB recognizes biodiesel champions at the annual Eye on Biodiesel awards presentation. The 2013 winners are: Industry Partnership: John Maniscalco, New York Oil Heating Association. New York City has become a shining example of biodiesel support as sustainability efforts continue to move forward. New York City recendy passed landmark legislation: starting October 2012, all heating oil sold in the city must contain at least 2 percent biodiesel. Bioheat will now replace up to 20 million gallons of petroleum a year. The efforts of Maniscalco and the support provided by the New York Oil Heating Association made this unprecedented legislation possible.
