Santa Monica Switches to B20

31 March 2005

Santa Monica Mirror. The City of Santa Monica, California, has switched 80 of its heavy-duty vehicles and machines to a B20 biodiesel blend (20% biodiesel).

Rick Sikes, superintendent of fleet operations, said, “If everything goes well with B20, we’ll introduce B100, or 100% biofuel. Then, people may actually enjoy the smell of diesel engine exhaust.”
