List of All Quarterly and Annual Reports for Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS)
Required Procedures for RFS Compliance Reporting
Submitters are required to use e-signature to sign the Copy of Record for EPA Moderated Transaction System (EMTS) transactions. This procedure eliminates the past practice of submitting separate RIN Generation and RIN Transaction reports.
For a Job Aid on this task, see: How to Use e-Signature to Sign RIN Transaction Reports in EMTS.
Below is a list of all the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) compliance reports.
For a step-by-step process on how to submit RFS reports, click the "How to report" tab.
