| FROM THE EDITOR ~ |
Dear Readers: I want to point out that our friends at The Pellet Fuels Institute have launched a new website with some major changes: new and improved layout, greater functionality, easier navigational ability, and new, rich content. The site serves as a great resource for those within the industry or those who wish to learn more about pellet fuel. It provides up-to-date information on industry standards and key federal legislation - two prominent issues impacting all of us. Be sure to bookmark and check out their new site. Best wishes, Craig Rawlings |
