Growth Energy Submits Supplemental Comments to EPA on Proposal to End SRE Abuse

Thu, 10 Mar 2022 11:48:14 CST

Growth Energy Submits Supplemental Comments to EPA on Proposal to End SRE Abuse Yesterday, Growth Energy submitted supplemental comments to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) further supporting 'EPAs proposal to deny 65 pending small refinery exemptions (SREs) before the agency and pushing back on erroneous comments challenging EPA's interpretation of its authority for the denials.

In its supplemental submission, Growth Energy reinforces EPA's analysis of the economics of RFS compliance and supports the agency's standard for showing disproportionate economic hardship under the RFS, which would require denial of the 65 pending SREs.

"In February, EPA proposed a full sweep denial of 65 pending SREs before EPA, a move that would provide the biofuels industry with certainty in the marketplace and the encouragement that the years of SRE abuse are over," said Growth Energy CEO Emily Skor. "EPA should be steadfast in its findings that SREs can only be granted in a narrow set of circumstances of disproportionate economic hardship caused solely by compliance with the RFS. It should ignore continued erroneous claims from oil industry commenters seeking to avoid blending more homegrown, low-carbon biofuels into their fuel. With historically high gas prices amid the war in Ukraine, we need more American biofuels available at the pump - not less."
