The National Farmers Union is one of several groups frustrated that the EPA missed the deadline for releasing Renewable Volume Obligations for 2021.
NFU biofuels advisor Anne Steckel says by statute, the RVO’s should’ve been announced by November 30th.
“This affects not only biofuels producers, but obviously our farmers as well (by) putting uncertainty out there about what those volume requirements will be for next year. So we’re very disappointed the Administration didn’t make this a priority.”
NFU president Rob Larew says by punting the decision to the next administration, EPA is introducing even more uncertainty to the biofuels industry.
