Energy Future Coalition, et al. v. EPA, et al.

<> Energy Future Coalition, et al. v. EPA, et al. - 7/15/15. In the U.S. Court of Appeals, D.C. Circuit, Case No. 14-1123. Petitioners in this case include several biofuel producers that want EPA to approve E30, which is a fuel that contains about 30% ethanol, for use as a test fuel. But according to petitioners, E30 is not yet "commercially available," as required by EPA's test fuel regulation. 

     Petitioners argue that the test fuel regulation is arbitrary and capricious. The Appeals Court disagreed and denied the petition.
