Data from EPA now shows there are 38 small refiner exemption (SRE) requests pending for the 2018 compliance year as of June 24.
There were 40 SRE requests received by EPA and the data now shows that two have been declared ineligible or have been withdrawn from consideration.
SREs continue to be a major focus with US biofuel interests, with the White House ordering a review of the SRE process after President Donald Trump was hit with criticism at an Iowa event. Farmers told Trump that while they appreciated the administration’s efforts to approve year-round sales of E15, the SREs were effectively more than offsetting the benefit from the potential expanded ethanol sales.
