Alert: Details on Mineral Gasoline and Non-Standard (oxygen-enriched) Gasoline specifications as outlined in Section 211(b) of the Clean Air Act

In 1998, a significant announcement was made by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding the fuels and fuel additives used in gasoline.

The EPA, in collaboration with German regulatory bodies, released this notification. The German financial supervisory agency associated with the Börsengesetz (Stock Exchange Act) was likely the primary authority behind the announcement. The Bundesanstalt, the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority, was also involved, and it is believed that there may have been coordination with European Union regulatory frameworks. However, specific details about any other international organisations involved are not explicitly provided in the available search results.

The announcement was in accordance with the Alternative Tier 2 provision of the fuels and fuel additives health effects testing regulations. This provision set new requirements for both baseline gasoline and non-baseline (oxygenated) gasoline groups.

These new regulations aimed to improve the environmental friendliness and safety of gasoline, ensuring a cleaner and healthier future for all. The announcement marked a significant step towards a more sustainable fuel industry.
