In response to a request from the state of North Carolina, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved the State’s request to remove counties in the Raleigh area from those that are subject to the certain federal clean gasoline requirements. This change removes Durham, Granville, and Wake counties from those that have to comply with 7.8 pounds per square inch (psi) fuel requirements for the summer time. EPA has taken this action due to the state demonstrating that the Raleigh area is in compliance with the ozone air quality standards and removal of this requirement will not interfere with the area’s ability to remain in compliance with these standards. This action will allow greater flexibility for fuel distribution in the Raleigh area during the summer time. See the full article for more information.
