Local Biodiesel: A Biodiesel Co-ops Conference, to be held July 14-16 at
Colorado School of Mines in Golden, Co (near Denver), is now accepting
attendee registrations online.
For more info about the conference see http://b100.org

The conference will present case studies and panel discussions about
biodiesel groups- co-ops, educational groups, small business biodiesel,
along with technical, legal, distribution, and feedstock discussions
from the perspective of small-scale availability.

There will be a large amount of time devoted to networking and informal
discussions among attendees, to assist in meeting others from your
region and with your specific interests in biodiesel organizing.

We are trying to present presentations based on actual experiences,
rather than theory about how groups should be run. We are looking for
speakers who wish to come talk about their groups and the biodiesel
progress in their community.

The conference is $60 (including two meals a day), with some optional
dorm room accommodations available. Preregistration is required, and
the deadline for that is July 7 (with an earlier deadline for dorm room
reservations unfortunately). Friday night the 14th is a free
presentation to the general public along with a networking social/dorms
check-in afterward. The conference sesssions/presentations will take
place Saturday and Sunday.

page is www.b100.org/registration
