MO Ag Dept Liason Inquiry

Here is a copy of the information I just sent the Missouri Agriculture Liason Office in regards to the FarmBill2018 act and how it relates to the Missouri Hemp Farming Regulations and law.

Thank you for your time and assistance with my questions. 

1) Who would be a good contact person to discuss the Missouri Hemp rules, regulations, requirements, and various information about Missouri Hemp Farming act? To truly help Missouri Farmers capitalization of the benefits Hemp could bring to our State additional roadblocks need to be recognized and addressed that will unleash the potential of this great plant.

2) Farm Bill 2018- Does the inclusion of allowing Farmers accross the Nation to utilize Hemp Farming for their agribusiness ventures affect the current Missouri Hemp legalities established this year by MOleg that I feel is shortsighted- in that it (a) limits the acres of production and (b) "requires" the Farmer to work with a higher learning institution and/or the Missouri Dept of Agriculture.

I have additional questions, scientific information, eliminating pitfalls, MO Agri Business ideas and suggestions, in addition to the information presented here. My goal being: not making the same mistakes that inhibit the full exploitation of Hemp for the benefit of all Missourians that I have witnessed other states do.

Thanks again for your time and assistance. I look forward to your reply!  My best to you and yours this Christmas Season.

Hemp On,

Scotty

How will this affect Missouri Hemp Farming

I asked the Missouri Department of Agriculture that exact same thing!

Update: Industrial Hemp Farming has been approved in the USA House and Senate. This was part of the current #Farmbill2018 legislation. Current status: waiting on President45 signature!

Comment period opens on EPA’s ACE rule @BiomassMagazine

Sure seems like the @EPA is doing everything it can to keep the Dirty Coal industry afloat.

Notice: Cofiring Biomass with coal barely gets a mention. 

Here's what everyone is missing and how Hemp could help (proven by science I've shared previously).  Here's the short version: when Hemp Lignin is removed from the stalk of a hemp plant and sprayed on dirty coal before the combustion chamber (cofiring).  The lignin increases the BTU output of the dirty coal.  This increased heat burns so hot- the harmful coal emissions are eliminated without any upgrades or smokestack scrubbers.

In a nutshell this would not only save electricity buyers money, because we won't be passed along the $millions$ needed for smokestack upgrades.  It would also help the Farmers, in turn helping the local community all over the USA instead of just the coal producing states.

The U.S. EPA published its proposed rule to create the Affordable Clean Energy Program (ACE rule) in the Federal Register on Aug. 31, officially opening a 60-day public comment period on the proposal.



On Aug. 21, the EPA released a prepublication version of the ACE rule, which aims to establish emissions guidelines for states to develop plans to address greenhouse gas (GHG) emission from existing coal-fired power plants. The ACE rule would replace the Clean Power Plan, which the EPA proposed to repeal last year.



Information released by EPA indicates one major difference between the CPP and the ACE rule is that the CPP promoted disinvestment in coal in favor of renewables and natural gas, and relied on fuel switching. Alternatively, the ACE rule promotes investments to make coal plans cleaner and more efficient and does not promote fuel switching.



According to the EPA, the ACE rule defines the best system of emission reduction (BSER) for existing power plants as on-site, heat-rate efficiency improvements. It also provides states with a list of candidate technologies that can be used to establish standards of performance and be incorporated into their state plans. In addition, ACE updates the new source review (NSR) permitting program to further encourage efficiency improvements at existing power plants and gives states time and flexibility to develop their state plans.



The ACE rule also briefly addresses biomass. While the proposal does not include cofiring as BSER, the agency does propose that biomass cofiring be allowed as a compliance option that states may consider. The rule also references an April 23 April 23 policy announcement by the EPA in which the agency said biomass from managed forests will be treated as carbon neutral when used for energy production at stationary sources.



The public comment period on the ACE rule closes Oct. 30. Comments can be filed online at www.Regulations.gov under EPA-HQ-OAR-2017-0355.
