Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) Program (Renewal)

OMB 2060-0725 · EPA/OAR.

OMB 2060-0725

This ICR package is a renewal of an existing collection, Recordkeeping and Reporting for the Renewable Fuel Standard Program, OMB Control Number 2060-0725, expiring August 31, 2022. The RFS regulations are in 40 CFR part 80, subpart M. Because it is more efficient and easier for regulated parties to understand, we seek to consolidate the following approved ICRs into this collection: Modifications to Fuel Regulations to Provide Flexibility for E15; Modifications to RFS RIN Market Regulations (Final Rule), OMB Control Number 2060-0723, expiring November 30, 2022; and Renewable Fuel Standard Program: Standards for 2020 and Biomass-Based Diesel Volume for 2021, Response to the Remand of the 2016 Standards, and Other Changes (Final Rule), OMB Control Number 2060-0728, expiring December 31, 2023. The RFS program was created under the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct), which amended the Clean Air Act (CAA). The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA) further amended the CAA by expanding the RFS program. The RFS program is a national policy that requires a certain volume of renewable fuel to replace or reduce the quantity of petroleum-based transportation fuel, heating oil or jet fuel. The reporting requirements of the RFS program typically fall under registration and compliance reporting. Recordkeeping requirements include product transfer documents (PTDs) and retention of records that support items reported. Because RFS relies upon a marketplace of RINs, EPA has created and maintains the EPA Moderated Transaction System (EMTS) capable of handling a high volume of RIN trading activities. The respondents to this ICR are RIN Generators (producers and importers of renewable fuel), Obligated Parties (refiners and importers of gasoline and diesel), Exporters, RIN Owners, independent third-party Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) Providers, Third Parties (Auditors who submit reports on behalf of other respondents), and certain petitioners under the international aggregate compliance approach (such petitions are infrequent).
