The makeup of the new Congress is expected to be friendly to the biofuels industry. That’s according to Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw. He thinks the Renewable Fuel Standard is in pretty good shape with both the House and the Senate.
He says the jury is still out on Andrew Wheeler who’s expected to be nominated to the full time position as EPA administrator. Shaw says though he’ll likely be better than former administrator Scott Pruitt was.
Shaw says there’s a lot of unfinished business for renewable fuels that the EPA needs to handle going forward.
Shaw says he thinks Wheeler wants to do the right thing for renewable fuels but we’ll have to wait and see.
