Thank you.
I want to thank all the committee members for making it here today, with the snow.
I want to start with biodiesel, and I have a series of questions for Mr. Thurlow.
We're far behind this objective we had for biodiesel production in this country. Why are we not at the objective now? There was a biofuel subsidy, which will terminate and not be renewed. Why did that subsidy not work? Why were refiners complaining that somehow the specifications were not met?
I'm wondering if you could give your point of view on that.
