Abstract:
The final rule establishes a new 40 CFR part 1090, which will replace a patchwork of fuels regulations under 40 CFR part 80, and which permits several potentially cost-saving improvements, including: Promoting the fungibility of fuels, which will reduce distribution and storage costs; Reducing the regulated number of fuels characteristics to be tested and reported from 13 to four, which reduces reporting burdens; Leveraging the part 80 registration system so that parties who are already registered will remain registered under the new part 1090; Reducing the required frequency of batch reporting from quarterly to annual; Providing better formats and easier procedures for reporting; and Consolidating existing survey programs.
