In its discussion of Enforcement Test Tolerances, EPA states that if test results "show the product to be above the standard, then the product is in violation regardless of whether or not it is within the tolerance." Since this is, technically, a violation how is this reconciled with the requirement that parties in the distribution chain must take corrective action to bring all product into compliance? Can we rely on stated EPA intention to bring no enforcement if samples are over the standard but within tolerance? Are records required for these instances?
See More Frequent Questions about Fuels Registration, Reporting, and Compliance Help . Parties are expected to take corrective action when samples collected at locations downstream of the refinery or import facility exceed an applicable standard for a parameter plus the enforcement tolerance for that parameter. For example, if a distributor…

It is technically possible for a particular batch of RFG to meet all current ASTM and EPA volatility specifications and yet have an E200 value less than the 30% minimum specified in 40 CFR 80.45(f)(1)(ii). Does EPA consider it unlawful to produce and sell a particular batch of RFG with an E200 less than 30% even though the volume-averaged 18 parameters of the total RFG produced during the compliance period, including the E200 value, are well within the valid range of the Complex Model?
See More Frequent Questions about Fuels Registration, Reporting, and Compliance Help . The valid range limits associated with the Complex Model are, in effect, per-gallon RFG standards. Thus it would be unlawful to produce RFG with an E200 value less than 30 vol%. The July 11, 1997 NPRM has proposed…

The July 1, 1994 Question and Answer Document discusses the antidumping provisions that impact California gasoline -- a non-RFG California gasoline before 3/1/96 must meet all antidumping requirements (i.e., volumes and properties.) After 3/1/96, California gasoline is exempt from certain enforcement requirements of the antidumping rules. Does this mean that both the fuel parameters and fuel volumes associated with California gasoline are exempt from the antidumping rules, or are the volumes still included when comparing against the 1990 baseline volumes?
See More Frequent Questions about Fuels Registration, Reporting, and Compliance Help . Section 80.81(d) provides that, subsequent to March 1, 1996, refiners, importers and oxygenate blenders of California gasoline shall demonstrate compliance with the RFG and antidumping standards specified in §§ 80.41 and 80.90 by excluding the volume and properties…

It is our understanding that the conventional gasoline message for product transfer documents "this product does not meet the requirements for reformulated gasoline.." is intended to prevent the sale or use of conventional gasoline in reformulated gasoline covered areas, and that, while other PTD information can be conveyed via product codes, this message must be explicitly present on the PTD. It is understandable that this message be present on PTD's of shipments to service stations so that carriers and service station operators are aware that the product is conventional. However, for bulk custody transfers of gasoline between sophisticated parties within the petroleum industry such as pipelines, marine vessels, railroad cars, etc., the parties involved know what product they are handling, and the product is not directly bound for a service station. Based on this, we believe the explicit conventional message should only be required on PTD's of deliveries to service stations and that other PTD's should be allowed to convey this message implicitly via product code. Do you disagree with this rationale?
See More Frequent Questions about Fuels Registration, Reporting, and Compliance Help . The language regarding conventional gasoline specified at § 80.106(a)(1)(vii) must be included in the product transfer documentation for all transfers of conventional gasolines, and this specific language requirement may not be satisfied through the use of product codes…

The July 1, 1994 Question and Answer Document indicates that sulfur, T90, and olefins are the only simple model RFG standards that can be seen on a refinery aggregated basis. We interpret this clarification to apply only to simple model RFG compliance and believe that it does not affect the anti-dumping provisions of § 80.101(b). Please confirm that all simple model anti-dumping standards can be met on a refinery-aggregate basis including sulfur, olefins, T90, and the exhaust benzene standards.

It is my understanding that under the RFG regulations the EPA mandates product transfer documentation for conventional gasoline starting January 1, 1995, not December 1, 1994. Is this correct?
