Section 205 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 requires the Federal Trade Commission to promulgate labeling requirements for fuels containing biodiesel or biomass-based diesel (collectively, “biodiesel fuels”). Accordingly, the FTC has published proposed amendments to its rule for “Automotive Fuel Ratings, Certification, and Posting” (aka “the Fuel Rating Rule”).
