The Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) is seeking more clarification from EPA regarding the agency’s apparent focus on vehicles model year 2001 and newer when it comes to increasing the allowable ethanol blend level in gasoline to 15 percent. Such a limitation could potentially limit once again the market for ethanol by excluding some 40% of the vehicle market and causing both consumer confusion and retailer unwillingness to offer the product.
In this edition of “The Ethanol Report,” we hear from RFA president and CEO Bob Dinneen about the letter he has written to EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson about their concerns.
