| 97-6022 | Registration of Fuels and Fuel Additives: Extension of Specified Deadlines for Atypical Additives and Biodiesel Fuels; and, Reformulated Gasoline Complex Model: Modification of Survey Precision Requirements | Rule | In a document published July 11, 1996, EPA proposed to modify specific provisions of the fuels and fuel additives (F/FA) registration and testing program which, if finalized, would change the applicability of certain requirements to specified F/FAs. In the case of that document, EPA proposed changes affecting testing requirements for ``atypical'' and biodiesel F/FAs. The effect of that proposal has been to make the current testing requirements uncertain for potentially affected F/FAs, and to make the current compliance schedules unreasonable for such F/FAs. Therefore, related deadline adjustments are appropriate. Accordingly, this direct final rule extends Tier 1 deadlines for biodiesel fuels and Tier 2 deadlines for atypical F/FAs. These short delays are not expected to have a substantial impact on the benefits of the F/FA testing program, and may prevent certain manufacturers from making unnecessary expenditures. In this direct final rule, EPA is also modifying the survey precision requirements under the reformulated gasoline (RFG) complex model. This action will permit survey managers to submit a proposed sample size based upon the precision with which means of emission parameters can be estimated, subject to EPA approval. This approach is expected to provide significant cost savings to respondents, without adverse environmental impact. | 1997-03-17 | 1997 | 3 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1997/03/17/97-6022/registration-of-fuels-and-fuel-additives-extension-of-specified-deadlines-for-atypical-additives-and | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1997-03-17/pdf/97-6022.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | In a document published July 11, 1996, EPA proposed to modify specific provisions of the fuels and fuel additives (F/FA) registration and testing program which, if finalized, would change the applicability of certain requirements to specified F/FAs.
