co-proposing two approaches to revising the existing 2026 and 2027 small refinery exemption (SRE) reallocation volumes under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) program

Fetched verbatim passage. AI summary (separate from source): EPA published a proposed rule to reallocate an additional 770 million RINs from 2025 refinery exemptions, protecting demand anticipated under Set 2. Publication met the lawmakers’ October 16 proposal deadline, but implementation remains unresolved: comments close December 4, 2026, and this action is not a final rule.

We stand ready to work with you in implementing a supplemental rule which is consistent with Set 2 projections

Fetched verbatim passage. AI summary (separate from source): The official congressional release identifies Fedorchak as a signatory to a letter urging EPA Administrator Zeldin and Energy Secretary Wright to propose the supplemental rule by October 16 and preserve Set 2 volumes for 2026 and 2027. This documents concrete advocacy immediately before the lookback window; it does not establish completed implementation.

Assessments

Public state: pending As of 2026-10-18 · verified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): unresolved. unknown

The verified EPA passage establishes a proposal, not implementation. The verified commitment and repeated readiness statement do not establish follow-through by Fedorchak or her material contribution to the proposal. Neither delivery nor an attributable partial outcome is documented. No deadline for her own action is verified, so the commitment remains unresolved rather than never. Readiness alone does not establish effort beyond the commitment.
