Section: 52:34-6.8: State agencies to consider use of biofuels.
3. a. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law, rule, regulation or order to the contrary, State entities shall consider the use of biofuels to replace the use of petroleum-based fossil fuels in order to meet the State's goals of reducing dependence on fossil fuels, promoting the production and purchase of clean energy fuels, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
b. A State entity shall purchase and use biofuels to replace petroleum-based fossil fuels for heating equipment, or other similar combustion systems, motor vehicles, or other motorized equipment, if the State entity determines that the cost of biofuels for the purpose in question is the same or less than the cost of fossil fuels for that purpose, and if the State entity further determines that the use of biofuels to replace fossil fuels for that purpose is reasonable, prudent and cost effective.
