| Comment | The demand for renewable diesel depends on an even-playing field
with petroleum diesel indexes. When this cost-balance is disrupted,
even the greenest and proudest customers utilizing renewable diesel
tend to default to the least expensive product. Their ability to be
competitive in the market depends on it.
Though the environmental benefits & fleet performance of RD99
greatly exceeds that of fossil-diesel, most users of RD99 are not
able to pay more in a highly competitive world even though they
support the goal of using this sustainable commodity.
We therefore respectfully request that CARB not enact the phaseout
of RD pathways, an arbitrary cap on feedstocks or unnecessary
sustainability requirements
