Environmental assessment: notice of proposed rulemaking for the allocation and pricing of gasohol
This report presents the results of an environmental assessment (EA) of a pending proposal by the Economic Regulatory Administration concerning the allocation and pricing of gasohol and the unleaded gasoline which is used as its blend stock, and an alternative proposal to exempt gasohol and unleaded blend stock from allocation and price regulations. The objective of this EA is to identify and assess the seriousness of environmental impacts resulting from the proposed rule in order to determine whether an environmental impact statement is needed. A regulatory analysis has also been prepared on the proposed rule. A summary of the findings of this EA is provided. It is concluded that no significant environmental impacts are attributable to the proposed rule and, therefore, that an environmental impact statement is not required. 29 references, 5 figures, 15 tables.
