The primary focuses for the new Chairman of the Renewable Fuels Association includes the yet to be released rule on the volume requirements for the RFS and Rail backlogs. Randy Doyal , General Manager and CEO of AL Corn Clean Fuel in Claremont, Minnesota says the top issue is the RFS and who or what determines what those volume levels are.
Doyal says another major concern is the backlog of rail service that’s effecting all renewable fuels, ag commodities and other shipments.
Doyal says while the rail issue needs a long term solution they’re hoping the Office of Management and Budget will release EPA’s RFS volume requirement rule soon.
