The problem is there is none being made anywhere, and never has been.
That doesn't matter to Obumbles Nazi EPA, they still get fined.

Don’t know if you listened to Rush yesterday, but after what I heard I have a whole new view of Govt. bureaucracy.
I’m now completely in the E L I M I N A T I O N mode as the only viable solution to their misuse of bureaucratic license.
“I saw a report yesterday that the EPA is fining gasoline refiners for not blending fuel that contains ethanol made from ‘grass-tree bark-unicorn farts-etc’”
Cellulosic ethanol process is the process demanded by the EPA and they were issuing fines for not producing blended fuels until the refiners finally grew a set. Albeit a very small set.
This is the ethanol process with another step required for an already highly subsidized process. At this time, this process is impossible without high subsidies and the all so typical poor fuel mileage of E-10 ethanol/gas garbage.
Various sources of cellulose (wood, grasses, vines, non-food parts of crops like corn stalks, etc.) are exposed to enzymes which attempt to break down the small amounts of starch into sugars so that the conventional sugar to ethanol distillation process can take place.
Getting, or creating the right enzymes seems to be the problem.
The communists attempting to destroy us in the EPA demanded cellulosic ethanol process be used yet not a drop has been made commercially. Small amounts have been created but as of yet nothing which would allow the construction of an industrial size operation.
Right now the EPA is structured to do more damage to us than anything else O’Blame-o and his comrades can do.
NOTE: A woman who used to work for me as our environmental engineer was looking for a job with the EPA and found a listing looking for approx 200 (not positive of the number but it was in the hundreds) environmental engineers with pistol permits.
I wonder what sort of pollution the EPA is worried about which requires a pistol permit. Maybe they are expecting us to fight back! That is a fight we need to win and win big.
