An oil and gas industry trade association filed a second lawsuit challenging U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations governing fuel additives that include biological materials.
The American Petroleum Institute, in lawsuits filed yesterday and in March, is seeking to overturn an EPA standard mandating the purchase of fuels formulated in part from biological materials including switchgrass, wood chips and agricultural waste. The group claims the regulations include cellulosic fuels that don’t exist.
