Dakota Spirit ethanol plant in Spiritwood

In November of 2002, Governor John Hoeven announced a proposal to provide incentive funding for new ethanol plants built in the state. Subsequently, the 58th Legislative Assembly approved Senate Bill 2222 which set forth the ethanol production incentive program in the North Dakota Century Code. This bill was signed into law and has received revisions in subsequent legislative sessions. The currently applicable chapter of the Century Code is 17-02.

The Ethanol Production Incentive has been replaced with the Ethanol/Low Carbon Fuel Fund and responsibility for this program has been transferred to the North Dakota Department of Agriculture.  Please contact Shaun Quissell at squissell@nd.gov or (701) 328-4761 for more information.
