What is the new EPA Moderated Transaction System (EMTS)?
A.: The EPA is trying to simplify the process for transfering RINs and EMTS is at the core of this effort. Briefly, EMTS is a system/database maintained by the EPA to handle RIN transfer activities between interested parties. The objective is to eliminate duplicate RINs and other problems associated with the current RIN system by centralizing this aspect of the RFS. EMTS has not been implimented yet but is still under development and is being tested on a very limited basis.
