15-PERCENT ETHANOL GAS COULD HELP BRING DOWN PRICES AT THE PUMP

RENEWABLE FUELS SUPPORTERS SAY EXPANDING ACCESS TO 15-PERCENT ETHANOL GAS COULD HELP BRING DOWN PRICES AT THE PUMP. MISSOURI CORN GROWERS ASSOCIATION C-E-O BRADLEY SCHAD SAYS THE STATE’S SIX ETHANOL PLANTS PRODUCE MORE THAN 300 MILLION GALLONS ANNUALLY AND COULD RAMP UP PRODUCTION IF NEEDED.

SCHAD SAYS THE E-P-A COULD LIFT SOME REGULATIONS AND ALLOW THE SALE OF E-15 DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS.

GAS PRICES WERE ALREADY ON THE RISE BEFORE THE U-S BAN ON RUSSIAN OIL.
