Bill Summary
A bill to require the Environmental Protection Agency to finalize a proposed rule with respect to E15 fuel dispenser labeling and compatibility with underground storage tanks with modifications, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill requires the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to finalize a proposed rule within 90 days of enactment regarding E15 fuel (gasoline blended with 15% ethanol) dispenser labeling and compatibility with underground storage tanks. The bill mandates specific provisions for E15 labeling and tank compatibility, including deeming existing underground storage tank systems compliant with E15 fuel blends regardless of documentation, considering steel and fiberglass tanks manufactured after July 2005 as compatible with E15, and allowing tank owners to demonstrate component compatibility without replacing entire systems. Additionally, the bill requires future underground storage tank systems and components to be compatible with fuel blends up to 100% ethanol, ensuring flexibility for potential future fuel storage needs. This legislation aims to remove barriers to E15 fuel adoption by simplifying compliance requirements for fuel storage infrastructure and providing clear guidelines for tank owners and operators.
