...yes, EPA can *measure* pollutants on Indolene, but their milage tests should 100% represent the reality of what's actually used!
They are not going to mandate E30 nor do they mandate E15. The idea is to allow manufactures to certify their cars on it. A much better idea than just declaring all cars 2001+ legal to operate on a fuel when the manufacturers are saying they won't warranty it. If they certify it would be no different than cars certified as Flexfuel vehicles. Except they are designed to run on E30 instead of haphazardly tuned to compensate.
