The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing a virtual public hearing to be held on January 4, 2022, on its proposal for the "Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) Program: RFS Annual Rules," which was signed on December 7, 2021. An additional session will be held on January 5, 2022, if necessary, to accommodate the number of testifiers that sign-up to testify. EPA is proposing the 2020, 2021, and 2022 renewable fuel standards for cellulosic biofuel, biomass-based diesel, advanced biofuel, and total renewable fuel. EPA is also proposing to address the remand of the 2016 standard-setting rulemaking, extend certain RFS compliance and attest engagement reporting deadlines for the 2019, 2020, and 2021 compliance years, and several regulatory changes to the RFS program.
