‘I will carefully examine EPA’s proposed rule, especially its impact on small refineries,’ said Barrasso. ‘The law requires EPA to provide relief to any small refinery that suffers disproportionate economic hardship under the Renewable Fuel Standard. EPA must not take any steps that would limit the ability of small refineries to obtain hardship relief in the future. That includes restricting when they can apply for hardship relief or increasing the burdens on other refineries in the process.’
The EPW Committee has jurisdiction over the Renewable Fuel Standard.
