SB 176 updates South Dakota's definitions for alternative fuels and fuel blends used in agriculture and vehicles, adding new terms like "aviation gasoline," "biobutanol," and "biodiesel" along with specific standards these fuels must meet. The bill establishes clearer rules for what qualifies as biodiesel blends and defines who counts as a biodiesel producer for regulatory purposes. These changes modernize the state's fuel regulations to better accommodate alternative fuel options and align with federal Environmental Protection Agency standards.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
