In a situation where Refinery A purchases finished conventional gasoline from Refinery B, Refinery B should include the gasoline in its compliance calculations and Refinery A should exclude it. If Refinery A blends the gasoline with its own blendstocks and, therefore, must mathematically adjust the volume and properties of the average conventional gasoline production to account for the gasoline from Refinery B, what properties should be used in this adjustment, the analysis performed by Refinery B prior to shipment, or the analysis performed by Refinery A as the product was received?
The analysis of the product that is performed by Refinery A should be used. (4/18/95)
