Plain-language change summary

The bill SB 1058 was updated to change the allowable ethanol mixture in fuel from 51% to 83% ethanol by volume, instead of the previous limit of 85%. This adjustment is significant as it broadens the types of ethanol blends that can be used, potentially impacting fuel availability and may align with new environmental regulations or market conditions. This change reflects a shift in policy aimed at promoting more flexible fuel options while still supporting renewable energy initiatives.
