Senate Committee Defines Biomass as Carbon Neutral

Sterling, VA, August 9, 2024-In July, the U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee defined biomass as carbon neutral in its FY 2025 Interior funding bill, according to the Decorative Hardwoods Association. 

“This was one day after the House passed its version of the same funding bill, which also classified forest products biomass as carbon neutral. This would maintain the current treatment of biomass by agencies that expires every year unless renewed.”
