Biden Administration allows summer sales of high-ethanol E15 gasoline

The Biden Administration officials have issued an emergency waiver that allows widespread sales of high-ethanol E15 gasoline this summer, according to Bloomberg.

The EPA will announce today to exempt the 15 percent ethanol fuel blend from volatility requirements beginning June 1st to September 15h.

This strategy was used last year in an effort to help with high prices at the pump and is welcome news for the farming community.
