a. The inclusion of the preferences for recycled oil products
in publications used to solicit bids from suppliers.

definition. If the United States department of agriculture has not
adopted a definition, "bio-based hydraulic fluids, greases, and
other industrial lubricants" means hydraulic fluids, greases, and
other lubricants containing a minimum of fifty-one percent soybean
oil.
(2) "Other industrial lubricants" means lubricants used or
