Center for Biological Diversity Challenged Renewable Fuel Standards for 2020, 2021, and 2022. Center for Biological Diversity filed a petition for review in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals challenging the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) final rule establishing annual renewable fuel standards for 2020, 2021, and 2022.
