E15 gasoline will be available in all 50 states during the summer

The Environmental Protection Agency says consumers across the U.S. will still be able to buy cheaper E15 gasoline this summer.

The EPA announced Monday that it has issued an emergency waiver to allow sales of the higher-ethanol blend gasoline in all states after May 1. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin signaled that he plans to keep a waiver in effect through Sept. 15, when E15 sales would typically be allowed in all states again.

E15 gasoline with 15% ethanol is cheaper than E10 gasoline with a 10% blend. Environmentalists argue that allowing E15 sales year-round could potentially damage the air and water.
