# House Agriculture Committee Grills EPA Administrator Regan on 2023 RFS Volumes - Oklahoma Farm Report

> House Agriculture Committee members questioned EPA Administrator Michael Regan on why proposed 2023 to 2025 RFS volumes for biomass-based diesel and advanced biofuels fall short of current production. Clean Fuels Alliance says the U.S. market exceeded 3.6 billion gallons in 2022, while EPA's proposed volumes do not reach 3 billion gallons per year.

## Why it matters

Congressional pressure could push EPA to raise final volumes, which would support demand for soybean oil and other biomass-based diesel feedstocks. Continued resistance would leave soyoil demand growth dependent on the market rather than mandates.
