143405P.pdf   07/08/2015  Lion Oil Company  v.  EPA
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  14-3405
   Petition for Review of an Order of the Environmental Protection Administration   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Gruender and Beam, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Environmental law. The court had jurisdiction under 42 U.S.C. 
   Sec. 7607(b)(1) to hear this petition for review of the denial of an 
   exemption from the Renewable Fuel Standard Program for while the EPA 
   denominated the decision as a final agency action of nationwide scope and 
   effect, it did not publish its decision on the public record and the case 
   can be heard by this regional circuit as opposed to the D.C. Circuit; the 
   EPA's use of the Department of Energy's scoring system to deny Lion's 
   request for an exemption from the Renewable Fuel Standard program was not 
   arbitrary, nor was the decision to deny the exemption arbitrary; the EPA's 
   interpretation of "disprortionate economic hardship" was not unreasonable.
