The US Environmental Protection Agency's new reformulated fuels regulations impose a myriad of new record keeping and reporting requirements, in addition to the new quality standards. These requirements include an annual procedures review, or attestation. The attestation is part of EPA's enforcement plan and is required of all refiners, importers, and oxygenate blenders. This annual report is due May 31 of the year following the covered period and must be performed by a certified public accountant or a certified internal auditor. The attestation procedure is too complicated and detailed to be explained fully here, but the main points covered by the attestation are outlined to inform refiners who may be unaware of the requirements.
