Clean Fuels Appreciates Letter to New EPA Chief

(NAFB.com) – Clean Fuels Alliance America thanked 28 members of Congress who sent a letter to Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin. The lawmakers’ letter urged Zeldin to put the Renewable Fuel Standard back on track and provide a path for the growth of the U.S. biofuel industry. The letter specifically requests that the EPA set timely, robust volumes for 2026 and beyond in the “Set 2” rule; to reject the abuse of small refinery exemptions; and avoid proposals that retroactively lower set volumes or erode demand. “Steady growth in U.S. biofuel production means more American fuel in the marketplace and lower prices at the pump for hardworking families who have spent years suffering under high inflation,” the Congressional Biofuels Caucus wrote in the letter. “Rural communities are counting on you to maintain this trajectory by providing stable, predictable growth in U.S. biofuel targets and preserving the integrity of the RFS.”
