President Trump is lifting a ban on sales of gasoline blended with 15% ethanol, which would allow year-round sales of gasoline that was previously unavailable during the summer season, reports Reuters.
The EPA is planning on publishing a rule that will allow the sale of higher-ethanol E15 blends, which was previously restricted from sale in the summer due to excessive smog concerns, according to Market Watch. The ban lift will also assist U.S. corn farmers who have pushed for greater sale of the corn based fuel, according to the Associated Press, and have been negatively affected by low corn prices due to the U.S. and China trade war.
