Expires [PENDING]
The RFS0101 Amended RFS2 2011 Activity report is only applicable for RIN activity from January 1,
2011 through March 31, 2011. For RIN transactions that take place during April 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, EPA will release a revised report that reflects those requirements. This report is applicable for any activity of RFS1 and RFS2 RINs transferred under RFS2 regulations. Supplemental information for RFS2 RINs will be provided by EMTS after the end of each quarter. The EMTS supplemental information must be used to populate the RFS2 required fields of this report; however parties should not submit the EMTS Activity Report that is downloaded from EMTS. Please see the EPA Fuels Programs Reporting page for more information: http://www.epa.gov/otaq/regs/fuels/rfsforms.htm.
Any party that owns RINs during a given quarter shall summarize all RIN activities for the reporting period as described under §80.1451(c)(2). Reports must be submitted on separate reporting rows for separated and assigned RINs (i.e. a company that handles both separated and assigned RINs will submit 2 lines of reporting information.).
Obligated Parties with more than one registered facility may submit individual reports for each of their facilities, or aggregate facilities into a single report. Obligated parties that are gasoline importers with multiple import facilities must aggregate. Obligated parties who are both refiners and importers must report refiner and importer information separately.
This report is due on May 31 for the first quarter of 2011 (January through March), and is not to be used for any other reporting quarter.
Additional Notes
• All fields are required to be filled in.
• Fields 12 through 21, 33 and 34 are only applicable for January and February, 2011. These
fields may contain values if applicable to the party; however, if not applicable the party must enter
