Where is it dictated that certain states/cities require ethanol in their
auto fuel?
I've been to the EPA website and get 1000 hits on ethanol, but none
which show me the requirements.

Thanks

"Congress passed a law last year mandating a ramp-up to 15 billion
gallons of corn ethanol by 2015 and 36 billion by 2022."

I wasn't able to find the text of the requirement though. However,
knowing the dates and amount might help your search.
There is also a mandate that fuel contain a certain percentage of
"renewable" content that probably also plays into this.
