| 5 | Section 97. Section 526.06, Florida Statutes, is amended |
| 6 | to read: |
| 7 | 526.06 Mixing, blending, compounding, or adulteration of |
| 8 | liquid fuels of same manufacturer prohibited; sale of gasoline |
| 9 | blended with ethanol gasohol.--It is unlawful for any person to |
| 10 | mix, blend, compound, or adulterate the liquid fuel, lubricating |
| 11 | oil, grease, or similar product of a manufacturer or distributor |
| 12 | with a liquid fuel, lubricating oil, grease, or similar product |
| 13 | of the same manufacturer or distributor of a character or nature |
| 14 | different from the character or nature of the liquid fuel, |
| 15 | lubricating oil, grease, or similar product so mixed, blended, |
| 16 | compounded, or adulterated, and expose for sale, offer for sale, |
| 17 | or sell the same as the unadulterated product of such |
| 18 | manufacturer or distributor or as the unadulterated product of |
| 19 | any other manufacturer or distributor. However, nothing in this |
| 20 | chapter shall be construed to prevent the lawful owner of such |
| 21 | products from applying his, her, or its own trademark, trade |
| 22 | name, or symbol to any product or material. Ethanol-blended |
| 23 | Alcohol-blended fuels which contain 90 percent unleaded gasoline |
| 24 | and up to 10 percent denatured ethanol by volume ethyl alcohol |
| 25 | of a minimum of 198 proof and a maximum 50 parts per million of |
| 26 | acetic acid, commonly known as "gasohol," may be sold at retail |
| 27 | service stations for use in motor vehicles, as long as the |
| 28 | gasoline component complies with current state specifications, |
| 29 | until the American Society for Testing and Materials approves |
| 30 | specifications for gasohol. To provide retail service stations |
| 31 | flexibility during the transition period to ethanol-blended |
| 32 | fuels, the T50 and TV/L specifications for gasoline containing |
| 33 | between 9 and 10 percent ethanol shall be applied to all |
| 34 | gasoline containing between 1 and 10 percent ethanol by volume |
| 35 | provided the last three or fewer deliveries contained between 9 |
| 36 | and 10 percent ethanol by volume. If there is no reasonable |
| 37 | availability of ethanol or the price of ethanol exceeds the |
| 38 | price of gasoline, the T50 and TV/L specifications for gasoline |
| 39 | containing between 9 and 10 percent ethanol shall be applicable |
| 40 | for gasoline containing between 1 and 10 percent ethanol for up |
| 41 | to three deliveries of fuel. |
