Section 5. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by adding |

vehicles. |
(a) Beginning July 1, 2006, any diesel powered vehicle |
owned or operated by this State, any county or unit of local |
government, any school district, any community college or |
public college or university, or any mass transit agency must, |
when refueling at a bulk central fueling facility, use a |
biodiesel blend that contains 2% biodiesel, as those terms are |
defined in the Illinois Renewable Fuels Development Program |
Act, where available, unless the engine is designed or |
retrofitted to operate on a higher percentage of biodiesel or |
on ultra low sulfur fuel. |
