Lawsuits likely as EPA declares US ethanol blend wall a 'reality'

In a leaked proposal that would significantly scale back biofuel blending requirements next year, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says the blend wall - the 10 percent threshold of ethanol-mixed gasoline that is at the crux of the lobbying war - is an "important reality". The agency's rationale for a cut in the volume...

EPA Changing its Mind on E15 with Potential Revised 2014 Biofuels Target

The EPA document referred to the E10 blend wall as an important reality and comes from more acceptance that the federal 2007 Renewable Fuel Standard biofuels mandate appears to be unreachable. If thats the case, courts are likely to see more case filings coming from biofuels industry associations focused on the EPA backing away from 2014 targets.............................The Article EPA Changing its Mind on E15 with Potential Revised 2014 Biofuels Target appeared first on Automotive Digest.
