Legislation currently under consideration by the New York legislature aims to establish a clean fuel standard (CFS) that would reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) intensity from on-road transportation by 20% by 2033.
On April 15, Iowa’s cost-share Renewable Fuels Infrastructure Program awarded almost $1 million in grants to add E15 to 94 Iowa retail fuel sites throughout the state, according to the Iowa Renewable Fuels Association.
The U.S. EPA on April 28 announced it will issue emergency fuel waivers for both E10 and E15. The emergency actions aim to provide consumers with relief at the pump by increasing the fuel supply and reducing costs.
In April, the U.S. Grains Council and the National Corn Growers Association held trade policy academies in Ames, Iowa, and Birmingham, Michigan, for producers to learn about the latest developments affecting global markets for their goods.
A bill currently pending in the California legislature would authorize the use of E15 within the state until state agencies complete the required evaluation process for the fuel blend and issue a decision.
