Temporary Summer Sale of E15 Fuel Authorized in Eight States

This law temporarily changes the rules for selling E15 gasoline (containing 15% ethanol) in eight Midwestern states. From May 1 to September 15, 2024, E15 fuel can be sold in these states, which was previously restricted during the summer due to fuel volatility regulations. This means drivers in these regions will have a wider choice of fuels at gas stations during the summer period.
