Notice of Receipt

of

Petitions for Waiver of the Renewable Fuel Standard

Dear Administ rator McCarthy:

We are writing to urge the Administration to reconsider the proposed 2014 Renewable Fuel

Standard

(RFS)

volumes

for both

Biomass-Based Diesel and Advanced Biofuel. We are

particularly concerned that this proposal could cut U.S. biodiesel production in half from

current run rates of more than 2.0 billion gallons, causing dozens of plants to close and

thousands of Americans

to

lose

their

jobs. We believe this is contrary to this Administration s

commitment

to creating quality manufacturing jobs across the United States and its strong

position over

the

past five years to support the development

of

Advanced Biofuels, including

Biomass-based Diesel,

as

part

of

an all-of-the-above approach for domestic energy policy.

In

short, we believe the proposal cannot be supported under

EPA s

statutory obligations to ensure

at least

the

statutory volumes are produced.

We strongly encourage this Administration, consistent with its direction under

the

statute, to

cont inue annually increasing Biomass-based Diesel production. Specifically, we urge you to

establish a volume

for

Biomass-based Diesel

of

at least 1.7 billion gallons in 2014 and 2.1 billion

gallons in 2015, while enforcing the 2014 Advanced Biofuels program at the volume specifically

required by Congress at 3.75 billion gallons. The proposed volume increases

for

Biomass-based

Diesel are minimal in the context of the overall fuels marketplace. The industry

has

already
