| ||||
Sec. 4. ASTM standards.
| ||||

Act. The standards set
forth in the Annual Book of (ASTM) | ||||
American Society for Testing and
Materials Section 5, Volumes | ||||
05.01, 05.02, 05.03, 05.04 and 05.05 and
supplements thereto, | ||||
and revisions thereof are adopted unless modified or
rejected | ||||
by a regulation adopted by the Department. In addition, any
| ||||
advertised or labeled declarations regarding the quality of a | ||||
motor fuel
which are more stringent than ASTM standards shall | ||||
be met.
| ||||
(a-5) The quality of gasoline-oxygenate blends sold or | ||||
offered for sale in this State shall meet the standards set | ||||
forth in Section 2.1.1.1 or Section 2.1.1.2 of the Uniform | ||||
Engine Fuels, Petroleum Products, and Automotive Lubricants | ||||
Regulation as provided under the National Institute of | ||||
Standards and Technology Handbook 130, and any of its | ||||
subsequent supplements or revisions, except as specifically | ||
modified, amended, or rejected by regulation issued by the | ||
Director.
| ||
(b) Minimum Automotive Gasoline Octane Requirements.
| ||
All leaded and unleaded gasoline sold in this State shall | ||
meet or exceed
the following minimum octane numbers:
| ||
Regular Grade 87

An octane number is determined by adding the research | ||
octane number to the
motor octane number and dividing by 2. | ||
(RON + MON)/2. In addition, the motor
octane number shall not | ||
be less than 82.0. All gasoline products sold at
retail shall | ||
have an octane number displayed.
| ||
(c) Each seller of a motor fuel shall notify the purchaser | ||
of the type and
quantity of motor fuel purchased. For gasoline, | ||
the type shall indicate the
octane number. This information | ||
shall appear on the bill of lading, manifest,
or delivery | ||
ticket for the fuel. This subsection does not apply to sales at
| ||
retail.
| ||
(d) All gasoline products shall meet the most recently
| ||
adopted ASTM standards for spark-ignition motor fuel, and those | ||
standards
adopted under the provisions of the federal Clean Air | ||
Act by the U. S.
Environmental Protection Agency shall be the | ||
standards of this State in those
areas in which the federal | ||
Clean Air Act fuel standards apply.
| ||
(e) All biodiesel with a numerical value of B100 that is | ||
sold or offered for sale in the State of Illinois shall conform | ||
to the ASTM D6751 Standard Specification for Biodiesel Fuel | ||
Blend Stock (B100) for Middle Distillate Fuels. For the | ||
purposes of this subsection (e) "Biodiesel" shall have the same | ||
meaning ascribed to it as in the Illinois Renewable Fuels | ||
Development Program Act. | ||
