The EPA is currently considering whether to raise the ethanol blend rate from 10 to 15 percent.  There has been some speculation that the agency could settle on a 12 or 13 percent blend, rather than stepping all the way to 15 percent.  But after meeting with EPA officials in Washington last week, the executive director of the Iowa Renewable Fuels Association, Monte Shaw, says that’s not going to happen.
