• Abstract:
  This report by the General Accounting Office summarizes (1) the results of
  
  federal and other studies on the cost-effectiveness of using reformulated
  
  gasoline compared to other measures to control automotive emissions and compare
  
  the price estimates used in the studies for reformulated gasoline with more
  
  recent actual prices; (2) the results of studies estimating the potential for
  
  oxygenates to reduce the use of petroleum; and (3) the ongoing federal research
  
  into biofuels, including any related past or projected cost-reduction goals,
  
  and any increased demand estimates based on such research goals. Appendix. I
  
  contains information on the greenhouse gas emission characteristics of
  
  reformulated gasoline.
