The EPA has agreed to provide the Government Accountability Office information on the small refinery exemption program withheld by the previous administration.
Renewable Fuels Association CEO Geoff Cooper tells Brownfield the request dates back to 2019 when members of the House Biofuels Caucus asked the GAO to conduct a formal investigation into the secretive process behind granting waivers.
Despite three separate requests, he says former EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler stonewalled the government watchdog.
