US EPA extends 2013 renewable fuel standard compliance deadline
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is planning to extend its compliance deadline for the 2013 Renewable Fuel Standard to 30 September, according to Platts. Refiners and obligated parties originally had until 30 June to demonstrate compliance with the 2013 RFS, which mandated 16.55bn gallons of biofuels, including 2.75bn gallons of advanced biofuels, be blended into US transportation fuels.
It is understood the extension is the result of the EPA being late in issuing the 2014 standard. The new deadline will allow obligated parties to plan for how many 2013 Renewable Identification Numbers to carry over for 2014 compliance. The EPA plans to finalise the 2014 standard ‘shortly’, having previously pledged to finalise by 22 June, reports the news agency.
