No new government regulation. What has happened is your loading racks are now getting 84 octane gasoline.
Before Magellan Midstream Partners; Iowa’s largest pipeline operator was shipping 87 and 91 to the loading racks. They are now switching over to 84 and 91 because 87 is getting harder to find. Most of the refineries have stopped making it.
Your supplier has chosen (maybe forced) to load (depending on what loading rack they are loading at) 84 with 10% ethanol rather than a 84/91 mix to make his 87 octane gasoline. Its a cost cutting measure because ethanol is cheaper than 91 on a octane bases. Suppliers are forced to choose what blend they will sell because none can stock all grades of gasoline. They just do not have enough tanks. Since the majority of people shop price on 87 gas rather than pure gasoline guess what blend your supplier will choose.
