The Biodiesel Coalition of Texas, Inc. (BCOT) is a non-profit corporation created by biodiesel pioneers and industry leaders to ensure that biodiesel receives favorable treatment by state regulatory agencies and the Texas Legislature. Since its inception, BCOT has developed strategies to persuade the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality that their regulations should view biodiesel as part of the solution to Texas air quality challenges, not part of the problem. For example, the TCEQ-initiated low emission diesel (TxLED) program, has the potential to devastate the emerging biodiesel industry in Texas unless the TCEQ recognizes the net environmental benefits of this clean-burning, renewable fuel. Biodiesel’s greatest immediate challenge in Texas will be to protect biodiesel from being displaced out of the Texas diesel fuel market as a result of TxLED. If the Texas biodiesel industry endureTxLED, BCOT’s long-term mission is to work with the public and private sector to foster the production, distribution and use of biodiesel in Texas.
