EPA administrator doesn’t think it’s possible to reassign waived RIN obligations

April 3, 2019 |

In Washington, Platts reports that the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency doesn’t believe RIN obligations that have been waived under the hardship waiver program can be reassigned to other obligated parties to make up for the missing ethanol gallons. The agency is reviewing 39 hardship waiver applications for 2018, one left over each for 2016 and 2017, 35 in 2017, 19 in 2016, and it hasn’t denied an application since the 2015 compliance year but there has been some indication that partial waivers could be issued.
