The Renewable Fuels Association today congratulated Erik Huschitt and Bill Couser for their appointment to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Farm, Ranch, and Rural Communities Federal Advisory Committee, which provides independent policy advice and recommendations to the EPA Administrator on crucial environmental issues affecting agriculture and rural communities.
Huschitt is the CEO and general manager of Badger State Ethanol in Wisconsin and is a member of RFA’s board, and its immediate past chairman. Bill Couser is a founder of RFA producer member Lincolnway Energy in Iowa. Couser is a returning member to the committee, and Huschitt is a new appointee.
“Erik and Bill bring a lot of practical experience to the table when it comes to agriculture, renewable fuels, and the environment,” said RFA President and CEO Geoff Cooper. “We are proud to see their knowledge and expertise being put to use, and we appreciate Administrator Regan’s continued willingness to bring all voices to the table. I am sure they will make a terrific addition to this committee, and have a lot to offer.”
