What it does

The Renewable Fuel for Ocean-Going Vessels Act would amend the Clean Air Act to allow credits to be generated under the federal renewable fuel program for renewable fuels used in ocean-going vessels. It expands the definition of eligible renewable fuels to include fuel for ocean-going vessels alongside home heating oil and jet fuel. The bill requires the EPA Administrator to issue implementing regulations within one year of enactment and submit a report to Congress within one year after final regulations are promulgated, with the changes taking effect starting in the second calendar year after enactment.
