Changes to Clean Air Act fuel rules let the EPA allow certain fuels or additives even if they would otherwise violate summer volatility (Reid vapor pressure) limits, by treating them as "substantially similar" or by waiving the RVP limit under specified conditions. The bill also revises a numerical RVP reference from “10 percent” to “10 to 15 percent.”
It also requires returning or applying renewable-fuel compliance credits (RINs) to qualifying small refineries for the 2016–2018 Renewable Fuel Standard compliance years, with eligibility criteria and deadlines spelled out for which facilities may receive relief. Together, the changes affect refiners, fuel blenders, EPA implementation duties, and the renewable fuels credit market.
