Agriculture Environmental Stewardship Act of 2016 This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to allow energy tax credits through 2020 for investments in: (1) qualified biogas property, or (2) qualified manure resource recovery property. The bill also permits new clean renewable energy bonds to be used for such properties. "Qualified biogas property" comprises a system that: (1) uses anaerobic digesters or other specified processes to convert biomass into a gas which is at least 52% methane; and (2) captures the gas for use as a fuel. The term includes property that cleans and conditions the gas for use as a fuel. "Qualified manure resource recovery property" comprises a system that uses specified processes to recover the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus from a non-treated digestate or animal manure by reducing or separating at least 50% of the nutrients, excluding any reductions during the incineration, storage, composting, or field application of the non-treated digestate or animal manure. The term also includes certain processing equipment. The Department of the Treasury must enter into an agreement with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory for a study of biogas and report to Congress on the study.

2017 · first_quarter · Taxation/Internal Revenue Code
Communicated the need to expand existing investment tax credits for equipment used to collect biogas used to generate electricity to equipment used to in biogas projects that use the gas for other purposes, such as powering milk hauling trucks. In the same effort, promoted investment tax credits for agricultural nutrient resource recovery projects. No legislation introduced on this subject in Q1 2017, but when introduced, it will be virtually identical to the Agriculture Environmental Stewardship Act of 2016, HR 5489.
