## Summary

**Creates a $1-per-gallon renewable natural gas fuel tax credit** that would apply to RNG sold or used as motor vehicle, motorboat, or aviation fuel. It ties eligibility to producer registration and certification and ends after December 31, 2035. - RNG producers must register and provide certification to make their gas eligible, which determines how many gallons count toward the credit. - Sellers or business users of RNG could receive a payment from the Treasury equal to the credit amount for RNG used in their trade or business, with payments made without interest. - Blended fuels count only for the contracted and certified gallons in a preexisting contract that specifies quantity and period, and the credit is not available for RNG produced or used entirely outside the United States.
