Today, Clean Fuels Alliance America delivered a formal notice of intent to sue the Environmental Protection Agency for its failure to issue timely 2026 Renewable Fuel Standards. By statute, EPA is required to finalize volumes 14 months before the start of the compliance year; for 2026, that deadline would come at the end of October this year. On June 28, the White House Office of Management and Budget released the Spring 2024 Unified Agenda of Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions, setting out a timeline for EPA to propose the 2026 RFS Volumes by March 2025 and finalize the rule by December 2025.

Clean Fuels applauded the letter and thanked all of the Representatives who led and signed.
