Ethanol supporters are eager to hear from President Trump on what will be done to address small refinery exemptions. Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley recapped a recent White House meeting. “We went in (to the meeting) with a simpler plan. If it comes out on paper the way the White House seemed to agreed with us, then we have a win-win situation,” said Grassley. “A win for small refineries, legitimately getting a waiver, but any waived gallons need to be put back in.” Grassley says he will wait and see what comes from the EPA, but he also thinks President Trump could make an announcement sooner rather than later. “I would speculate the president is tired of dealing with this. He’s more or less said so many times, even when we were back in the White House talking about E15.”
