The Nebraska Ethanol Board has partnered with the University of Nebraska College of Engineering and, so far, has produced over 30,000 gallons that has all been donated to people throughout Nebraska. Local 464 and its labor/management fund donated $7,500 to help purchase labels that are required for the containers to be distributed.
