Rehagen Previews Conference

John2009 Conference, Audio

rehagenJust a couple of days away from the start of the 2009 National Biodiesel Conference & Expo, and earlier this afternoon, I caught up with Donnell Rehagen, the Chief Operating Officer for the National Biodiesel Board as he was finishing up preparations before flying out Thursday morning for the conference site in San Francisco.

Donnell is really excited about the opportunity to go to one of the country’s major cities that has a real commitment to biodiesel. Nearly the entire municipal fleet runs on B20, so it’s only fitting the city is hosting this great event.

There’ll be plenty of sessions on production, marketing, and of course, making biodiesel a sustainable fuel for generations to come.

Besides the business of the conference, there will be some first-class entertainment AND education, as rocker Melissa Etheridge and actress Daryl Hannah, both big advocates of biodiesel, make appearances.

Donnell says there’s still time for you to sign up and attend. You can do it through the conference Web site or in person at San Francisco’s Moscone Center starting Sunday, running through February 4th.
