What percentage biodiesel do the New Orleans buses use, and where do they get it?

New Orleans has had some buses running on biodiesel for about a year now. They look nice and have a biodiesel logo on the side. But what percentage biodiesel are they using? 2%, 5%, 20%, 80%, or pure biodiesel? And where do they get it? None of the gas stations in the city seem to sell biodiesel.

The buses in New orleans are using a B5 blend. The B5 blend will take 5% of the diesel and replace it with the biodeisel.

August of last year, New Orleans had 39 buses shipped in that will use the B5 blend.
