According to a recent media report, North Dakota gas stations have installed more than 170 blender pumps, more than any other state. Blender pumps allow motorists to select a variety of ethanol blends from a single pump in addition to the standard E15 most often sold. The 61st North Dakota Legislative Assembly provided one-time funding for a Biofuels Blender Pump Program--$5,000 per pump and up to $40,000 per retailer. The program has received additional funding from the Department of Energy. Retailers installing ethanol blender pumps also may be eligible for an additional grant of $2,500 per pump from the North Dakota Corn Council. The state program runs through May 1, 2011.
