Renewable fuel standard moving in the right direction
A new EPA proposal would mean less ethanol be blended into gasoline than last year.
Beef producers were among those applauding the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) proposal to lower the amount of ethanol blended into gasoline required under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS). The agency would require 15.21 billion gallons of the additive in 2014, down from 16.55 billion gallons in 2013.
