EPA’s Fuel Standards Burden Biogas, Trade Group Tells D.C. Cir.
The Coalition for Renewable Natural Gas told the D.C. Circuit at oral argument on Thursday that the Environmental Protection Agency’s latest renewable fuel standards conflict with Congress’s directive to promote renewable fuel in the transportation market.
The standards should act as “a market-forcing mechanism to incentivize the creation of renewable fuels and the environmental benefits that come with them,” Jonathan Ellis of McGuireWoods said on behalf of the coalition.
