About this file

The provided document is a list of biobased products that could be used under the Allegheny National Forest Forestwide Fence Construction contract. The document describes four categories of biobased products:

Fuel Conditioners: Products that improve engine performance and efficiency by removing deposits, increasing lubricity, removing moisture, increasing cetane number, and preventing microbial growth. Minimum biobased content is 64%.

Gear Lubricants: Products such as greases or oils designed to reduce friction in toothed machine parts. Minimum biobased content is 58%.

Gasoline Fuel Additives: Chemical agents that increase octane levels, improve lubricity, and provide engine cleaning properties. Minimum biobased content is 92%.

Engine Crankcase Oil: Lubricating products that provide lubrication and wear protection for four-cycle gasoline or diesel engines. Minimum biobased content is 25%.

The related federal contract opportunity is for the Allegheny National Forest Forestwide Fence Construction project, which aims to build deer exclosure fences around timber stands to prevent white-tailed deer from browsing on tree seedlings. The contract will be awarded by the USDA Forest Service.

LIST OF BIOBASED PRODUCTS:

Attached is a link to the USDA Biopreferred Catalog that contains listing of products that could be used under the contract.

https://www.biopreferred.gov/BioPreferred/faces/catalog/Catalog.xhtml The items listed below are descriptions of possible biopreferred products that could be used under the contract.

FUEL CONDITIONERS

Description: Products formulated to improve the performance and efficiency of engines by providing benefits such as removing accumulated deposits, increasing lubricity, removing moisture, increasing the cetane number, and/or preventing microbial growths within the fuel system.

Minimum Biobased Content: 64%

GEAR LUBRICANTS

Description: Products, such as greases or oils, that are designed to reduce friction when applied to a toothed machine part (such as a wheel or cylinder) that meshes with another toothed part to transmit motion or to change speed or direction.

Minimum Biobased Content: 58%

GASOLINE FUEL ADDITIVES

Description: Chemical agents added to gasoline to increase octane levels, improve lubricity, and provide engine cleaning properties to gasoline-fired engines.

Minimum Biobased Content: 92%

ENGINE CRANK CASE OIL

Description: Lubricating products formulated to provide lubrication and wear protection for four-cycle gasoline or diesel engines.

Minimum Biobased Content: 25%
