### RFS2 Production Outlook Report Issued Date: 08/6/2010 Report Form ID: RFS0900 Revised Date: 08/25/2010

The RFS0900 RFS2 Production Outlook Report is requi red for registered RIN generating renewable fuel producers and importers to provide expected renewabl e fuel production or imports at each registered and planned facility, pursuant to §80.1449.

The report is used to submit renewable fuel vo lume production and import expectations, and RIN generation expectations. Parties are required to provide renewable fuel volumes and RINs on separate rows of this report. Parties may only report one D code and fuel type per row, but may report multiple feedstocks per row.

This report is due annually: For 2010, the due date is September 1, and for every year following 2010, the due date is March 31.

Please check the RFS reporting web site for updated instructions and templates: http://epa.gov/otaq/regs/fuels/rfsforms.htm

If a potential strategic planning date is unknown or not yet planned, enter “NA”. If “RIN” entered in line 9, enter “NA”.
Description: Strategic planning occurs once upper management has determined that a regulation will affect a facility—it is at this stage that upper management decides on a response to the regulation that will position the company most advantageously re lative to its competitors. Input may include order-of-magnitude estimates of what compliance costs could be; or, how the bottom line may be affected if the decision is made not to comply and to instead shift product into other markets. Specific planning begins once management determines that, strategically, compliance will be necessary and will require the expenditure of significant capital. The decision to hire an outside engineering firm may be made at this time. The length of time required for this stage varies by facility or company, depending on size, complexity, and the number of facilities. It is nearly imposs ible to precisely project how much time a specific refinery may need to complete this stage.

If planning/front-end engineering is unknown or not yet planned, enter “NA”. If “RIN” entered in line 9, enter “NA”.
Description: Accurate and complete information is gathered during this stage so that preliminary process engineering work can proceed; and initial contacts made with technology vendors to find the best, least expensive technology options. Detailed engineering cannot begin until this stage is mostly complete. The length of time required for this stage varies by facility.

35. Detailed Engineering/ Permitting Date MM/DD/YYYY ; Date . Please enter the projected date of any detailed engineering and permitting that has taken place or will take place for any planned new construction or expansion in the next five (5) calendar years. If detailed engineering/permitting is unknown or not yet planned, enter “NA”. If “RIN” entered in line 9, enter “NA”.
Description: Detailed engineering usually overlaps with the preceding and the following stages, and includes construction planning and procuring contracts (since actual construction cannot be started until construction permits are issued).

36. Procurement/ Construction Date MM/DD/YYYY ; Date . Please enter the projected date of any procurement and construction that has taken place or will take place for any planned new construction or expansion in the next five (5) calendar years. If a procurement/ construction date is unknown or not yet planned, enter “NA”. If “RIN” entered in line 9, enter “NA”.
Description: This stage nece ssarily overlaps with thepreceding stage. Procurement includes purchasing longlead items necessary for construction of a new facility; once permits are issued, c onstruction can begin in earnest.

If a commissioning/start-up date is unknown or not yet planned, enter “NA”. If “RIN” entered in line 9, enter “NA”.
Description: Depending on the complexity of the project, commissioning and startup usually happen together. A critical part of commissioning and startup is the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) “Process Hazard Analysis”, a very complicated and time consuming, multi-part procedure that must be completed and signed-off on before startup can proceed. For this, accurate, final construction and as-built drawings, including complete piping and instrument diagrams, must be completed.
