EPA fuel waiver

If you wish, follow this link to read about the fuel waiver issued Wednesday. Of note:

These waivers only apply to volatility standards - the rate at which fuel evaporates - and the amount of sulfur in fuel.

If I understand this correctly, this sounds like a half-ass measure that fails to do anything for the so-called ozone non-attainment areas like southeast Wisconsin. The special formulation in these areas has to do with fuel oxygenation, not volatility or sulfur content.

Silly to even get my hopes up, really.
