Petty Officer 2nd Class Rod Tiong, an aviation bulk fuel specialist with Headquarters Battalion, explains the benefits of alternative E85 ethanol fuel to a visitor at the ribbon cutting ceremony for the new E85 fueling station on Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Nov. 18, 2010. The E85 station is the first, fully operational one in the state of Hawaii for both military and civilian installations alike, said Larry Adams, director of sales and marketing, Aloha Petroleum. Its use supports Headquarters Marine Corps-mandated gasoline reduction goals and MCB Hawaii's goal of reducing fossil fuel consumption 10 percent by next summer.
