Although this Alert is specific to boat and PWC users, how will the proposed increase in Ethanol content affect our rigs???

BLUERIBBON COALITION ACTION ALERT!

TELL THE EPA TO DENY WAIVER PETITION TO ALLOW E15
The increase in Ethanol in Fuel Blends has not had scientific testing!

Attention Action Alert Subscriber,

The alert concerns BRC members and supporters who have marine engines (this means boats and Personal Water Craft (PWC) owners). Please take action today!

As you may know, a pro-ethanol lobbying organization called Growth Energy and 54 ethanol manufacturers recently submitted a formal petition to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requesting a waiver under the Clean Air Act to increase ethanol blend levels in gasoline up to 15 percent (E15) by volume. As is required by law, the EPA on April 21 published a Notice for Comment in the Federal Register, beginning a 30-day public comment period that closes on May 21, 2009. There is enormous political pressure on federal agencies to allow a high blend level despite well-known problems with mid-level ethanol gasoline.
