National Corn Growers Association President John Linder says ensuring that the EPA upholds the law of the Renewable Fuel Standard is a top priority.
The EPA denied 54 of the 68 pending gap small refinery exemption petitions in September but hasn’t yet decided on the 14 remaining petitions.
“It’s the law— it was in the original RFS and the Tenth Circuit Court agreed with us so that’s what we need to remind him everyday that we have to obey the law,” he says.
