Notwithstanding the other provisions of this subsection, the Department expressly rejects the May 1, 2016 expiration of the vapor pressure exceptions in Section 2.1.2 of Handbook 130.  Therefore, the vapor pressure exceptions in Section 2.1.2 of Handbook 130 shall remain in effect until ASTM incorporates those exceptions into ASTM D4814.  These standards do not include any later amendments or editions of NIST Handbook 130.
