Blocks the EPA from shifting renewable fuel requirements from small refineries to other companies.
This bill would stop the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from making other companies take on the renewable fuel requirements of small refineries that have special exemptions. It would also make sure that the fuel produced by these exempted small refineries is counted when their owners' overall fuel obligations are figured out. This means other companies would not have to cover these obligations, and the exempted refineries' owners would have their fuel volumes included in their own calculations.
Today, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) can shift renewable fuel obligations from small refineries with exemptions to other companies. The fuel volumes from these exempted refineries are not explicitly included in their owners' total production for obligation calculations. If this bill passes, the EPA would no longer be able to reallocate these obligations, and the fuel volumes from exempted small refineries would be counted in their owners' total production when figuring out their renewable fuel requirements.
