Title: Requirements for Reformulated Gasoline (RFG) Under the 8-hour Ozone Standard for Bump-up Areas Designated Attainment for the 1-hour Ozone Standard Prior to Revocation 
Abstract: Reformulated Gasoline (RFG) is gasoline blended to reduce emissions that cause ozone. The Clean Air Act (CAA) requires certain areas to use RFG, depending on how serious the ozone problem. In some cases, areas that previously had a less-serious ozone problem subsequently experience worse air quality, and in such cases the Clean Air Act requires them to be "bumped up" to a higher category, thereby requiring use of RFG. The Agency is now implementing the transition from the previous 1-hour ozone standard to the 8-hour standard. This rule would set regulations for such cases.
