Renewable Fuel Standard Program - Standards for 2017 and Biomass-Based Diesel Volume for 2018 (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Renewable Fuel Standard Program - Standards for 2017 and Biomass-Based Diesel Volume for 2018 (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 Under section 211 of the Clean Air Act, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is required to set renewable fuel percentage standards every year. This action establishes the annual percentage standards for cellulosic biofuel, biomass-based diesel, advanced biofuel, and total renewable fuel that apply to all motor vehicle gasoline and diesel produced or imported in the year 2017. Relying on statutory authority that is available when projected cellulosic biofuel production volumes are less than the applicable volume specified in the statute, the EPA is setting volume requirements for cellulosic biofuel, advanced biofuel, and total renewable fuel that are below the statutory applicable volumes, but which are nevertheless significantly higher than past requirements. The final rule also establishes the four percentage standards applicable to obligated parties, namely producers and importers of gasoline and diesel, based on the corresponding volume requirements. The final standards are expected to continue driving the market to overcome constraints in renewable fuel distribution infrastructure, which in turn is expected to lead to substantial growth over time in the production and use of renewable fuels. In this action, we are also establishing the applicable volume of biomass-based diesel for 2018.
