  • facilitating the utilization of biomass technology, and
  • encouraging biomass related economic development.

Council membership includes representatives from agriculture, forestry, recycling, power generation, state and local government agencies, higher education, research, and manufacturing and individuals interested in reducing the biomass waste stream or increasing economic opportunities for biomass.
