Ethanol Industry Expects EPA to Miss Deadline to Address Waiver Requests

摘要

The Environmental Protection Agency will probably miss the statutory deadline to respond to requests from states to reduce the volume of ethanol that must be blended into gasoline, ethanol industry representatives told reporters Nov. 9. However, the industry remains confident EPA will deny requests to waive the renewable fuel standard's ethanol requirements, said Bob Dineen, president and chief executive officer of the Renewable Fuels Association, an ethanol trade association.
