USDA has published a request for information (RFI) for the Higher Blends Infrastructure Incentive Program (HBIIP). The RFI seeks to gain input "to expand domestic ethanol and biodiesel availability."
USDA wants information "opportunities to consider infrastructure projects to facilitate increased sales of higher biofuel blends (E15/B20 or higher.)"
This effort seeks to build on the Biofuels Infrastructure Partnership (BIP) program USDA operated from 2016 to 2019 through state and private partners to expand the availability of E15 and E85 infrastructure to make available higher ethanol blends at retail gas stations around the country.
The request from USDA aims at informing where there may be "notable gaps, vulnerabilities, and areas to promote and protect in the HBIIP that may benefit from Federal government attention."
Comments are due on or before Jan. 30.
