1. (1) A person who sells or markets oxygenated gasoline at retail, or who otherwise provides oxygenated gasoline for consumption by an ultimate consumer, shall place two labels on a dispenser used to dispense the gasoline to identify the oxygenate in the fuel, using the following criteria:

   1. (a) The first label must include the following statement: “The gasoline dispensed from this pump is oxygenated and will reduce carbon monoxide pollution from motor vehicles”;

   2. (b) The second label must contain the type of oxygenate(s) and the exact (plus or minus 0.5 percent) or maximum use concentration by volume. Only those oxygenates and concentrations listed below and any gasoline designated by EPA as substantially similar are allowed.

      NOTE: This applies only to the Department rules and dispenser is still responsible for complying with the disclosure requirements of ORS 646.915.

   3. (c) Lettering on the label must be legible and in block style of at least 20 point bold type;
   4. (d) The lettering on the label shall be in a color contrasting to the intended background;
   5. (e) The label must be placed on each side of the dispenser from which the gasoline can be dispensed and shall be on the upper one half of the dispenser, in a position that will be clear and conspicuous to the consumer.

2. (2) A person who pursuant to OAR 340-258-0110(7) dispenses non oxygenated gasoline in a control area during the control period at a site where motor vehicles may have access must display a label in accordance to the standards above containing the following information: “This fuel is not oxygenated to State of Oregon standards and may not be dispensed into motor vehicles.”

   NOTE: Dispensing sites that are not accessible to motor vehicles are not required to have the above labels.
