Oil industry, at White House, makes case against EPA fuels rule

Big refining companies and a major industry trade group are taking their case against tougher Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) vehicle emissions and fuel rules to the White House.
Representatives from Shell, Marathon Petroleum and the American Petroleum Institute met Feb. 21 with White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) aides about the EPA’s planned “Tier 3” low-sulfur gasoline rules, records show.
Industry groups contend the rules will create billions of dollars in compliance costs while providing little benefit, noting that existing standards have already required steep cuts in the sulfur content of gasoline.
The EPA sent the proposed low-sulfur gasoline regulation to OMB in late January.
