Nebraska Congressman proposed bill to allow E15 sales during the summer

April 15, 2015 |

In Nebraska, Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) introduced legislation to broaden consumer fuel choice by expanding the existing waiver of Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations related to the Reid vapor pressure of motor vehicle fuel to include E15 gasoline in addition to E10.

EPA regulations currently inhibit E15 fuel sales during the summer months. E10 fuel received a waiver in 1990, and Smith’s bill would extend this waiver to also include E15.
