What the agency says

EPA is proposing to partially waive the 2024 cellulosic biofuel volume requirement and revise the associated percentage standard under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) program due to a shortfall in cellulosic biofuel production. As a result of this proposed change, this action also proposes to extend the RFS compliance reporting deadline for the 2024 compliance year. This action also proposes several minor revisions related to the biogas provisions of the RFS program.
