        <text><![CDATA[ Fuels Security Act of 2005 - Amends the Clean Air Act to require that motor vehicle fuel contain a specified volume of renewable fuel. Defines &quot;renewable fuel&quot; to include motor vehicle fuel that is: (1) produced from grain, starch, or oilseeds; (2) natural biogas; (3) cellulosic biomass fuel; (4) biodiesel; or (5) composed of a mix of components derived from renewable fuel. <p> <p>Establishes a system of: (1) tradeable credits for motor vehicle fuel containing more renewable fuel than required; and (2) waivers of renewable fuel requirements for states and small refineries. <p>Amends the Energy Policy Act of 1992 to require federal agency heads to ensure that ethanol-blended gasoline and biodiesel-blended diesel fuel is purchased for agency vehicles in areas where such fuel is available at competitive prices. <p>Amends the Clean Air Act to eliminate the oxygen content requirement for reformulated gasoline. <p>Requires the Administrator to: (1) establish standards for toxic air pollutants from the use of reformulated gasoline; and (2) within 30 days of enactment of this Act, determine the adequacy of any petition from a state governor to exempt gasoline sold in the state from certain requirements for reformulated gasoline. <p> <p>Permits states additional opt-in areas under the reformulated gasoline program. <p> Requires the Administrator, at the request of a state, to enforce state controls on fuels and fuel additives. <p> <p>Sets forth various data collection and reporting requirements. <p>Directs the Secretary of Energy to provide loan guarantees for demonstration projects to convert celllulosic biomass into ethanol.]]></text>
