Each state in the United States has enacted statutes relating to biofuels. These statutes vary from tax incentives for biofuel production to labeling of biofuel for resale to the very definition of a biofuel. This compilation of state statutory citations focuses predominantly on biofuels laws in effect January 1, 1970 through December 31, 2007. In some instances, regulations have been included in the compilation due to their significance. This compilation is intended to serve as a researcher-friendly inventory of state laws by providing the formal title of relevant legislation, the standard legal citation for each statute and a brief description of the law. Some statutes and regulation listed do not specifically relate to biofuels but are included because of their complementary relationship to the evolution of biofuels law in the state.
