EPA has indicated that a batch of RFG should be certified based on the volume shipped out of the refinery from the blending tank. However, where a blend is transferred to a storage tank after blending, the batch may be certified based on the volume transferred from the blending tank to the storage tank. In the latter instance, if an amount of gasoline that is different from the certified batch volume is then shipped out of the refinery from the storage tank, should the volume that is actually shipped out be included on the PTDs?
Yes. (5/9/95)
