Summary
The EPA is making a technical correction to its rules about what chemicals can be added to gasoline and diesel fuel. This regulation ensures that fuel sold at gas stations meets safety and environmental standards designed to reduce air pollution and protect public health.
Key Points
- 1The EPA is fixing errors or outdated language in its existing fuel regulations to make them clearer and more accurate
- 2This rule applies to fuel manufacturers and refineries that produce gasoline, diesel, and fuel additives sold across the United States
- 3The regulation helps prevent air pollution by controlling which substances can be mixed into fuel
- 4Gas station customers may not notice changes, but this ensures the fuel they buy meets federal environmental and safety standards
- 5The correction takes effect after the published date and applies to all fuel products sold going forward
Impact Assessment
If you are an Energy Company or fuel manufacturer, this means you need to ensure your fuel additives and blendstocks comply with the corrected EPA chemical standards, which is a technical clarification rather than a new requirement.
