This was on the email from Biodiesel Pacific
"We are currently planning for the Big Island plant, working with the County on the used cooking oil and also a couple of potential feedstock growers."
They are doing the same thing in SoCal. First they made WVO (waste veg oil) into a hazardous waste, really. Then you need an approve vehicle to collect even 5 gallons. Then you need a 100K bond and insurance to collect. Then Mom and Pops resturants can be sited/ticketed for not disposing of the WVO to an approved vendor. Then you tank will start being dipped if you run a diesel. And on and on...
Biodiesel Pacific is just trying to corner their market supply away from the small independent users. The county will make money and with the help of Biodiesel Pacific. Here is SoCal I have even seen small video cameras put up by WVO collector companies to catch anyone dipping there supply, sure some people rip them down. Biodiesel Pacific is part of the problem no the answer.
