AI Generated Summary
This bill amends a law to allow increased flexibility in how gasoline stations in Minnesota manage non-oxygenated gasoline, which is fuel not blended with ethanol. Specifically, the legislation permits retail gasoline stations to have up to two storage tanks for non-oxygenated gasoline if they are located within five miles of a motor sports racing facility; otherwise, they are limited to one tank. This type of gasoline can be sold for use in collector vehicles, off-road vehicles, motorcycles, boats, snowmobiles, and small engines like those in lawn mowers or snow blowers.
The bill outlines that the non-oxygenated gasoline must be a premium, unleaded grade and dispensed into containers no larger than six gallons if intended for small engines. Furthermore, gas pumps dispensing this type of fuel must display a clear notice about its intended use specifically for the vehicles and equipment mentioned.
Retail stations selling this gas are required to register biennially with a designated authority and report the amount of non-oxygenated gasoline sold each year. This measure is aimed at regulating and monitoring the use of non-oxygenated gasoline while accommodating the needs of certain vehicles and equipment that may benefit from its use.
