BIOFUEL GROUPS WELCOME SUPREME COURT DECISION ON SMALL REFINERY EXEMPTIONS LITIGATION
Source: Growth Energy news release

WASHINGTON, D.C.--Two prominent biofuel groups--Growth Energy and the Renewable Fuels Association (RFA)--commented on the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to grant certiorari on petitions pertaining to the administration of small refinery exemptions (SREs) under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), issuing the following joint statement:

"The Fifth Circuit was clearly an improper venue to hear challenges on small refinery exemptions (SREs). Because the Fifth Circuit opinion set up a clear split with several other Circuit courts on the question of venue, this is precisely the sort of issue that the Supreme Court is meant to resolve. The Court has agreed, and we look forward to participating in the case and having this issue settled once and for all.

"The refining community's abuse of small refinery exemptions destroys demand for biofuels nationwide, which negatively impacts farmers and bioethanol producers regardless of where they operate. The economic and environmental impact of this abuse does not recognize state lines. The decision in this case should strengthen the RFS by giving biofuel producers and their farm partners the certainty they deserve."
