"Mr. Pruitt is planning on being here tomorrow," Bill Pracht, CEO of East Kansas Agri-Energy, told POLITICO. "I was kind of surprised," he said, adding that he did not organize the visit. "He was coming to Kansas, doing one other event on a different issue, and the plant is on the way to the airport." Pruitt is also expected to visit another ethanol plant in South Dakota, according to a consultant with a communications firm that has been helping to organize the trip. The ethanol plant visits comes as Pruitt draws criticism from ethanol groups and Iowa's Sens. Chuck Grassiey and Joni Ernst for allowing dozens of refineries to Sierra Club v. EPA 18cv3472 NDCA Tier 1 ED 002061 00078993-00001 get out of their requirements under the Renewable Fuel Standard to blend ethanol with gasoline. Pracht said he plans to give Pruitt a tour of the plant and have the administrator meet with his board and some local agricultural groups. EPA did not respond to requests for comment on Pruitt's travel plans. Kelsey Tamborrino contributed to this alert.
