(a) Except as provided in paragraphs (b) and (d) of this section, on each occasion that any person transfers custody or title to a diesel fuel additive that is subject to the provisions of§80.521to a party in the additive distribution system or in the diesel fuel distribution system for use downstream of the diesel fuel refiner, the transferor must provide to the transferee documents which identify the additive, and -
(1) Identify the name and address of the transferor and transferee; the date of transfer; the location at which the transfer took place; the volume of additive transferred; and
(2) Indicate compliance with the 15 ppm sulfur standard by inclusion of the following statement: “The sulfur content of this diesel fuel additive does not exceed 15 ppm.”
(b) On each occasion that any person transfers custody or title to a diesel fuel additive subject to the requirements of §80.521(b), to a party in the additive distribution system or in the diesel fuel distribution system for use in diesel fuel downstream of the diesel fuel refiner, the transferor must provide to the transferee documents which identify the additive, and do each of the following:
(1) Identify the name and address of the transferor and transferee; the date of transfer; the location at which the transfer took place; the volume of additive transferred.
(2) Indicate the high sulfur potential of the additive by inclusion of the following statement:
This diesel fuel additive may exceed the federal 15 ppm sulfur standard. Improper use of this additive may result in non-complying diesel fuel.
(3) If the additive package contains a static dissipater additive and/or red dye having a sulfur content greater than 15 ppm, a statement must be included which accurately describes the contents of the additive package pursuant to one of the following choices:
(i) “This diesel fuel additive contains a static dissipater additive having a sulfur content greater than 15 ppm.”
(ii) “This diesel fuel additive contains red dye having a sulfur content greater than 15 ppm.”
(iii) “This diesel fuel additive contains a static dissipater additive and red dye having a sulfur content greater than 15 ppm.”
(4) Include the following information:
(i) The additive package's maximum sulfur concentration.
(ii) The maximum recommended concentration in volume percent for use of the additive package in diesel fuel.
(iii) The contribution to the sulfur level of the fuel, in ppm, that would result if the additive package is used at the maximum recommended concentration.
(c) Except for transfers of diesel fuel additives to truck carriers, retailers or wholesale purchaser-consumers, product codes may be used to convey the information required under paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section, if such codes are clearly understood by each transferee. Codes used to convey the statement in paragraph (a)(2) of this section must contain the number “15” and codes used to convey the statement in paragraph (b)(2) of this section must not contain such number.
(d) For those diesel fuel additives which are sold in containers for use by the ultimate consumer of diesel fuel, each transferor must have displayed on the additive container, in a legible and conspicuous manner, either of the following statements, as applicable:
(1) “This diesel fuel additive complies with the federal low sulfur content requirements for use in diesel motor vehicles and nonroad engines.”; or
(2) For those additives sold in containers for use by the ultimate consumer, with a sulfur content in excess of 15 ppm the following statement: “This diesel fuel additive does not comply with federal ultra-low sulfur content requirements for use in model year 2007 and newer diesel motor vehicles or model year 2011 and newer diesel nonroad equipment engines.”
