The Environmental Protection Agency has approved E15 for year-round use in eight Midwestern states, including Minnesota and South Dakota. However, the change does not take effect until 2024. It is a confusing decision for Minnesota Corn Growers Association President Richard Syverson. “We’re excited for consumers in Minnesota to have access to E15 year-round without any confusing labeling or issues at the pump but we’re just puzzled about why the EPA would have pushed this back. It doesn’t seem to make any sense.” Syverson said there were no reported problems during last year’s emergency waiver. Minnesota sold a record 105 million gallons of E15 last year.
