Title: Small Business Size Standards for the Fuel Dealers Industries 
Abstract: This rule replaced the receipts based size standard for two fuel dealers industries with an employee-based size standard. The industries are Heating Oil Dealers (NAICS 454311) and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (Bottled Gas) Dealers (454312). Petroleum prices have fluctuated greatly over the past several years and continued volatility is expected in the future. Because of the uncertain price fluctuations of petroleum, adopting an employee size standard will create a more stable size standard.
