Ethanol board announces dates for E85 workshopsNebraska The Nebraska Ethanol Board, the National Ethanol Vehicle Coalition and the Clean Fuels Development Coalition are holding a series of E85 Direct Marketing Workshops. The aim of the workshops is to promote direct marketing relationships between ethanol producers and fuel retailers and reduce costs for all parties involved. Ethanol plants, petroleum equipment suppliers, petroleum marketers and auto dealers are encouraged to attend these free workshops. Expert presentations will address E85 handling and storage, regulations and safety procedures, applying for the ethanol blender tax credit, and direct marketing of E85 from ethanol plant to retailer. Nationally recognized E85 expert and NEVC Executive Director Phil Lampert, CFDC Deputy Director Burl Haigwood and Nebraska Ethanol Board Administrator Todd Sneller will lead the workshops.
