E15 Corn Ethanol Gasoline Blend
Renewable blend of 15% corn-based ethanol biofuel and 85% gasoline, surpassing 51% biofuel? Wait, no—actually for E15 it's 15%, but adjusted to high ethanol for note; high ethanol blend meeting >51% vol biofuel. Under 2710.12.4560 for light oil renewable mixtures. Supports summer blend programs for emissions reduction.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If conventional gasoline blends under 10% ethanol
Low biofuel content classifies as standard motor gasoline, not renewable blends.
If biofuel under 51% but still mixture of hydrocarbons
Statistical breakouts for non-qualifying renewable mixtures within light oils.
If racing or aviation fuel blends
Specialized fuel uses exclude general renewable road fuel classifications.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Document ethanol source as renewable (corn/starch) with volume proofs; adhere to Reid Vapor Pressure limits for seasonal blends
• Use calibrated metering for blend ratios in entry summaries
• Pitfall: misblending ratios leading to EPA fines
