RE: US BATF Ethanol Permits was Fwd: Re: [biofuel] Still start-up

In France custom distillers will render fruit or whatever  a farmer has that
may be too far along and turn it into something else of value. In Britain or
the US you pour spoiled jam or a corn chip processor pours liquid down drain
as it isn't worth the hassle dealing with the bureaucraps.

We could take a lesson from the French.

 The text after my signature is taken directly off a US Dept. of the
 Treasury, BATF guide sheet for alcohol fuel plants. Alcohol fuel plants
 generally fall under small, medium and large.

 There are other formalities for Specially Denatured Spirits (SDS) users,
 alcohol fuel producers (small farm plants, etc.) and other alcohol use
 variations. Alcohol fuel producers start off with form 5110.74. But, as
with
 all paperwork, getting the form is the simple part.

 Success in obtaining a permit includes other responsibilities, such as
 securing storage facilities to prevent unauthorized entry. Depending upon
 production capacity, this could be construed to include razor wire,
security
 personnel, etc.

 BATF also secures the right to inspect facilities, records and reports
 during normal business hours, as well as acquisition of samples of
products
 to ensure compliance with law and regulations.

 Just in case anyone wishes to know.

When responding to messages, cut the bits that aren't relevant, or

response to Martin had six footers. Your response to me had two. If I 
just left it there, this message would have three. There are 660-odd 
list members, about 500 receiving email; the footer is seven lines, 
you had six of them, that's 21,000 lines needlessly transmitted, plus 
a growing load of garbage in the message archives at the list

In the original message text, cut everything except what's relevant 
to your reply - see below.

This is standard netiquette, much neglected but good behaviour 
nonetheless. Required behaviour.

It's also a good idea to change the subject heading when you change

I would definetly go legal with this, the govt. has the right to aquire the

like SWAT nowadays] at all and if you should start production before getting 
the permits I would denature the product to render it undrinkable and put up

 generally fall under small, medium and large.

 There are other formalities for Specially Denatured Spirits (SDS) users,
 alcohol fuel producers (small farm plants, etc.) and other alcohol use

 I've been to the ATF page a dozen times and I don't
 see form 5110.74 if that's what I need :)
 Well the still will be located on
 commercial/industrial land afaik, if not then I
 suppose I won't be too legal.. the police aren't that
 nosy around here.
 But being legal is the way to get ahead without the
 risk of causing trouble for yourself.
 Red tape isn't a problem. As long as there aren't
 ridiculous limitations I'll be fine.. and I'll be glad
 to let everyone know how my experiment goes.

 Steve,
 Does the federal permit over rule the state regulations. They (B.A.T.F.)
 told me to check with my state beverage control board about state laws. My
 state (Alabama) has stricter regulations than the Feds and they also
charge
 an annual fee of $100.00. They have a statement in the state code that
says
 it must be a continueous. What might this mean?

Hi Martin,
I received my packet not long ago from the B.A.T.F. the form you need is
ATF F %110.74 (2/90). This is an application for a permit NOT A PERMIT. The
address is National revenue Center Room 8002 Federal Office Building 550
Main Street, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202. I will try to find the phone number for
you as soon as I can. I believe I left it at work. It also might be a good
idea to get with Tony Ackland about the size of your still and the amount
you want to produce.
Good Luck,
Ron Miller

Subject: [biofuel] Still start-up


 I am planning on starting up a small still [10 gal/day
 to start] for my own experimental fuel purposes. Could
 anyone supply me with the form number I need to get a
 small fuel ethanol distiller's license from the BATF?
 I will probably start work before I actually get the
 license but I do intend to be legal with what I do.
 My intentions:
 --
 I will be starting a web page soon.
 I will provide a complete plan/description of
 everything
 I will produce enough ethanol to burn a 25% mix in my
 car, or convert my fuel system so it can run on at
 least 50%, while still being able to run on 100%
 gasoline
 I will use corn, as it is an agricultural area and
 corn is plentiful and inexpensive.
 I will burn corn or sawdust or as a last resort
 propane or natural gas or coal
 --
 My needs:
 --
 A definite place to locate the still [60% sure I can
 find a place soon]
 A BATF permit - a few months and I'll hopefully have
 it
 A good, working plan of a still that is the right
 size. Batches of 50 gallons are the intended volume of
 wash.
 Of course I always need more money, but I intend to
 build the still for as cheap as possible with used
 parts.
 Perhaps a market for ethanol that I don't use for
 personal fuel needs. A friend of mine wants to produce
 biodiesel for his vehicles - maybe he will want to try
 ethyl ester production instead of methyl ester.

 I talked to an old friend who owns a wood mill, he
 said he might let me put it 'out back'
 benefits:
 cheap electricity [industrial rate] - though I intend
 to not need any electricity
 easy access [close to home]
 free/nominal fee for land usage
 free/nominal fee for sawdust/chips [cellulose
 conversion for fermentation perhaps]

 Well I'm just rambling in a true sense of the word.
 Comments / help / _information_ GREATLY appreciated.
 I could use real fuel still plans [190+proof first
 pass]

 Thanks

2001-06-12 Thread Martin Klingensmith

I've been to the ATF page a dozen times and I don't
see form 5110.74 if that's what I need :)
Well the still will be located on
commercial/industrial land afaik, if not then I
suppose I won't be too legal.. the police aren't that
nosy around here. 
But being legal is the way to get ahead without the
risk of causing trouble for yourself.
Red tape isn't a problem. As long as there aren't
ridiculous limitations I'll be fine.. and I'll be glad
to let everyone know how my experiment goes.

 Please do keep the list informed on your progress,
 particularly
 in light of your desire to be totally legal. I
 understand your
 distillation operation cannot be located anywhere on
 a residential
 property (including yard, garage, shed, etc.)  In
 addition you will be
 required to submit proof that your alcohol is stored
 in a properly
 secured (i.e., locked and theft-proof) facility, and
 you will need to
 make regular reports as to the quantity of alcohol
 you are distilling
 and proof that it is being used for non-beverage
 purposes. If it's not
 as hard as it appears red-tapewise, others may be
 encouraged by
 your success.

Steve,
Does the federal permit over rule the state regulations. They (B.A.T.F.)
told me to check with my state beverage control board about state laws. My
state (Alabama) has stricter regulations than the Feds and they also charge
an annual fee of $100.00. They have a statement in the state code that says
it must be a continueous. What might this mean?

 the exemption is that for on site use, the fuel does not have to be
 denatured. reporting is less stringent as well.

  I believe there is an exemption for less than 10,000 gallons per year.
If
  that applies to you, you might want to take advantage of it.

US BATF Ethanol Permits was Fwd: Re: [biofuel] Still start-up

2001-06-12 Thread Appal Energy

The text after my signature is taken directly off a US Dept. of the
Treasury, BATF guide sheet for alcohol fuel plants. Alcohol fuel plants
generally fall under small, medium and large.

There are other formalities for Specially Denatured Spirits (SDS) users,
alcohol fuel producers (small farm plants, etc.) and other alcohol use
variations. Alcohol fuel producers start off with form 5110.74. But, as with
all paperwork, getting the form is the simple part.

Success in obtaining a permit includes other responsibilities, such as
securing storage facilities to prevent unauthorized entry. Depending upon
production capacity, this could be construed to include razor wire, security
personnel, etc.

BATF also secures the right to inspect facilities, records and reports
during normal business hours, as well as acquisition of samples of products
to ensure compliance with law and regulations.

Just in case anyone wishes to know.
