02-29-2016 by NATSO Senate Panel Examines RFS

The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee last week heard testimony discussing the current state of the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) program. At the hearing, critics of the RFS argued that the assumptions upon which the program is based — i.e., continuously increasing motor fuel demand — are no longer valid and that the RFS should therefore be repealed or substantially revised. RFS supporters testified that the program is needed to increase the amount of renewable fuels in the United States, and said EPA was wrong to lower the statutory volume obligations for the 2016 compliance period.

In these states and territories, tank owners are now subject to the EPA’s updated UST regulations, as well as applicable state requirements.

10-05-2015 by NATSO EPA Issues New Ozone Standard

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a final rule establishing ground-level ozone standards under the Clean Air Act. The rule, which did not go as far as the environmental community had hoped, is likely to affect fuel retailers in a variety of ways, primarily by injecting more heterogeneity into the motor fuels market, leading to increased costs of supply and ultimately higher prices at the pump.
