OMB began scheduling meetings on EPA’s proposed rule on the volume requirements for 2023 and beyond under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS). Several sessions are also slated for proposals linked to the electric vehicle (EV) industry and decarbonization efforts.

Eight meetings are scheduled so far, with separate meetings today with Fuels America, BTR Energy, and Clean Fuels America. A session is set for Nov. 18 with American Fuel and Petrochemical Manufacturers, with two separate sessions set for Nov. 21 with the National Corn Growers Association (NCGA) and AJW Incorporated — a group focusing on clean energy, clean fuels, transportation and industrial decarbonization, carbon markets and other issues. Two sessions are scheduled for Nov. 22 with Growth Energy and EVgo, the latter focusing their efforts on developing a convenient, reliable and affordable EV charging network to provide fast charging services. EPA committed via a court-approved agreement with Growth Energy to issue its proposed RFS levels no later than Nov. 30.
