[Editor’s Note: This section is removed and reserved effective January 1, 2022.]
(a) For the purposes of this subpart O, a gasoline small volume refinery is defined as any refinery that meets all the following criteria, and has been approved by EPA as a small volume refinery per§80.1622:
(1) Produces gasoline by processing crude oil through refinery processing units.
(2) The average aggregate daily crude oil throughput, including feedstocks derived from crude oil, for the calendar year 2012 (as determined by dividing the aggregate throughput for the calendar year by the number of days in the calendar year) does not exceed 75,000 barrels. Throughput means the total crude oil feedstock input into the refinery less volumes injected into the crude oil supply after refinery processing.
(b) The following are ineligible for the small volume refinery provisions under this subpart O:
(1) Refineries built or started up on or after January 1, 2013.
(2) Persons who exceed the crude oil throughput under this section for calendar year 2012 but who meet these criteria after that date, regardless of whether the reduction in crude oil capacity is due to operational changes at the refinery or a company sale or reorganization.
(3) Importers.
(4) Refineries that produce gasoline other than by processing crude oil through refinery processing units.
(c) [Reserved]
(d)(1) A refinery approved as a small volume refinery under§80.1622that subsequently ceases production of gasoline from processing crude oil through refinery processing units or exceeds the 75,000 barrel average aggregate daily crude oil throughput limit is disqualified as a small volume refinery. If such disqualification occurs, the refinery shall notify EPA in writing no later than 20 days following the disqualifying event.
(2) Any refinery whose status changes under this paragraph (d) shall meet the applicable standards of§80.1603within a period of up to 30 months from the disqualifying event.
