Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins is working to keep refineries flowing with U.S. goods, saying her Department is cracking down on imports of used cooking oil.
“The USDA team is also working on ways to address the challenges associated with imported used cooking oil and imported tallow, which are displacing homegrown biofuels in the current ag economy. U.S. biofuels remain a bright spot and tremendous opportunity.”
Rollins met with EPA officials this week on renewable volume obligations. The Administration is also looking at any emergency waivers to get year-round sales of E15.
