NWE biodiesel sustainability criteria proposal

Following on from an initial meeting with European biodiesel industry participants in October 2010, Platts is seeking further feedback to requests from participants for Platts to allow "Right-to-audit" as part of the Sustainability Criteria used in its European biodiesel assessment process.

In this criteria, upon the buyer's request, the seller should allow the buyer the right to audit the sustainability documentation for the sole purpose of determining the validity and veracity of these documents.

Please direct further queries to petchems@platts.com and pricegroup@platts.com by January 21, 2011.
