Title: ●Relaxation of the Summer Gasoline Volatility Standard for Florida and North Carolina 
Abstract: EPA established a two-phase reduction in summertime commercial gasoline volatility. These rules reduce gasoline emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) that are a major contributor to ground-level ozone (smog). EPA is proposing to approve Florida's request to relax the federal Reid Vapor pressure (RVP) standard applicable to gasoline sold in the state by revising 40 CFR 80.27. In addition, EPA is proposing to approve North Carolina's request to relax the applicable RVP standards in Wake, Durham, Granville, Davidson, Davie, Forsyth and Guilford counties.
