The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) said in an online notice it is scrutinizing a draft Environmental Protection Agency policy change from at least eight Midwestern governors that would allow year-round sales of E15 gasoline, signaling possible action within weeks. The move responds to a request from governors of Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin, who asked EPA for a new rule removing a 1-psi Reid vapor pressure waiver for conventional E10 gasoline, a change that would put it on the same footing as E15 that contains 15% ethanol.
