Jeremiah Smith said "the existing RFG regulations set separate standards for fuel sold in Northern and Southern RFG areas. Section 839 of the legislation we are discussing requires EPA to revise existing RFG regulations to apply the stricter Southern requirements in all RFG areas nationwide. This will provide the Northern RFG States, including New Hampshire, with less-polluting Southern RFG. In addition, this provision will help to reduce the number of boutique fuels. This provision does not alter the Administrator's current ability to make volatile organic compound (VOC) adjustments for ethanol blends of RFG, like the existing adjustment given to Chicago and Milwaukee." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
