   On page 1, line 16, after "determines that" strike all material through "passed" on line 18 and insert the following:

   "in-state biodiesel production from feedstocks grown in Washington state could satisfy a two percent requirement, or the date November 30, 2008, has passed"

   On page 2, line 1, after "determines that" strike all material through "requirement" on line 3 and insert the following:

   "in-state oilseed crushing capacity and in-state biodiesel fuel production from feedstock grown in Washington state could satisfy a three percent requirement"

   On page 3, line 20, strike "two percent"

EFFECT: The two percent biodiesel requirement must be implemented when biodiesel produced in the state from in-state grown feedstocks can satisfy the full two percent requirement rather than a predominant portion. The five percent biodiesel requirement must be implemented when biodiesel produced in the state from in-state oil crushing capacity and state grown feedstocks can supply three percent threshold rather than the two percent requirement. The state Director of Agriculture shall require fuel pumps offering any blend of biodiesel or ethanol to be identified by a label stating the percentage of biodiesel or ethanol.
