March 28, 2019 |

In Washington, Reuters reports that the Environmental Protection Agency has gone ahead and approved a 35th hardship waiver for 2017 while it is now expected to complete review of 2018 hardship waiver applications during April even though refiners had expected the decisions to be made during March in line with regulations. There is still one 2017 application pending while there are 39 petitions pending for 2018. The agency has come under scrutiny for the lack of transparency in determining who gets waivers or not.
