Bill > SB6269

This bill modernizes the definition of motor fuel by removing the broad category of "alternative fuel" and instead specifically defining "alcohol fuel" and "biodiesel fuel" as types of motor fuel. The existing definition of "alternative fuel" was a catch-all term for various products and energy sources used to power vehicles besides traditional gasoline and diesel, including things like natural gas, hydrogen, and even electricity. By removing this broad definition and focusing on specific types of fuels like alcohol and biodiesel, the bill aims to provide a clearer and more updated understanding of what constitutes motor fuel under the Motor Fuel Quality Act, which is a set of laws governing the standards and quality of fuels sold in Washington State.
