Christianson becomes 1st QAP provider approved by EPA in past 9 years

Christianson PLLP announced Feb. 21 that the U.S. EPA has approved its quality-assurance program (QAP) protocol for biodiesel and renewable diesel producers participating in the Renewable Fuel Standard.

Christianson PLLP is now one of only three approved QAP providers in the world and the first QAP provider approved by EPA in the past nine years.

Producers who are already registered with an approved pathway can now generate Q-RINs under the newly approved Christianson protocols.

Christianson’s detailed, hands-on protocol is supported by a team of highly trained compliance auditors and in-house experts.

The Christianson team strives to help clients protect investments, optimize the value of their products, and successfully connect them to appropriate markets.

“The Christianson compliance team is looking forward to helping their clients take advantage of this program to provide assurance for their downstream partners,” the company stated.

Christianson will continue to work with EPA to develop protocols for additional pathways under its QAP.

Christianson PLLP serves a regional and national client base in the accounting field with traditional auditing and accounting, tax strategy and consulting services. 

Christianson is also a national player in the biofuels industry with a majority of ethanol plants using services from one of the Christianson companies.
