White House to meet EPA and USDA on Monday to figure out RFS

In Washington, on the back of concerns about hardship waivers granted to at least 25 refiners by the Environmental Protection Agency that lets them out of their ethanol blending or RIN obligation and has sent RIN prices crashing as a result, the White House will meet on Monday with staff from the EPA and the US Department of Agriculture to come up with an action plan to resolve issues surrounding the Renewable Fuels Standard once and for all.
