volatile petroleum product which can be used as either a liquid
or a gas for domestic, commercial, industrial or engine fuel,
including all grades and qualities, composed predominately of
the following hydrocarbons or mixtures thereof: propane,
propylene, butanes and butylenes, but excluding prepackaged
nonrefillable liquefied petroleum gas products;
(xiv) "Mislabeled" means a package label or
dispensing device of a product which bears any statement, design
or device regarding it, regarding ingredients or substances
therein, or regarding the properties, quality or kind of the
products, which is false or misleading in any manner;
(xv) "Petroleum products" means all illuminating,
fuel and power oils, which are products of petroleum, or into
which petroleum or any product of petroleum enters or is found
as a constituent, and includes but is not limited to gasoline,
kerosene, diesel fuel, fuel oil, gasohol, gasoline alcohol
blends, biodiesel blends, engine fuels and liquefied petroleum
gas. Any petroleum product sold at retail shall have a
designation and meet specifications provided by the ASTM;
(xvi) "Products" means all petroleum products and
antifreeze products;
(xvii) "Retail dealer" means any dealer or person who
sells products to the consumer or user of the products;
(xviii) "Sell" or "sale" means the delivery or
distribution of a product to a consumer and includes barter and
exchange;
(xix) "Wholesale dealer" or "supplier" means a dealer
who sells products to a retail dealer;
(xx) "Biodiesel" means a fuel comprised of mono akyl
esters of long chain fatty acids derived from vegetable oils or
animal fats which may or may not be blended with diesel fuel;
(xxi) "Biofuel" means any commercially produced
liquid or gas used to propel motor vehicles or otherwise
substitute for liquid or gaseous fuels that is derived from
agricultural crops or residues or from forest products or
byproducts, as distinct from petroleum or other fossil carbon
sources. "Biofuel" includes, but is not limited to, ethanol,
methanol derived from biomass, levulinic acid, biodiesel,
pyrolysis oils from wood, hydrogen or methane from biomass, or
combinations of any of the above that may be used to propel
motor vehicles either alone or in blends with conventional
gasoline or diesel fuels;
(xxii) "Nonrefined products" means any liquid or gas
added to diesel, gasoline or gasohol comprising more than one-
half of one percent (.5%) by volume and that:
(A) Is not refined; or
(B) Was added after the diesel fuel, gasoline or
gasohol left the refinery.
(xxiii) "Oxygenate" means an oxygen-containing,
ashless, organic compound which can be used as a fuel, or fuel
supplement such as, but not limited to, ether, ethanol, methanol
and other alcohols;
(xxiv) "Refining" means the cracking, distillation,
separation, conversion, upgrading, and finishing of petroleum
products;
(xxv) "Biodiesel blend" means a fuel comprised of a
blend of biodiesel fuel with petroleum-based diesel fuel,
designated BXX. In the abbreviation BXX, the "XX" represents
the volume percentage of biodiesel fuel in the blend;
(xxvi) "E85 fuel ethanol" means a blend of ethanol
and hydrocarbons of which the ethanol portion is nominally
seventy-five percent (75%) to eighty-five percent (85%) volume
denatured fuel ethanol;
(xxvii) "Engine fuel" means any liquid or gaseous
matter used for the generation of power in an internal
combustion engine. "Engine fuel" includes but is not limited to
fuels derived from petroleum, biomass and vegetable oils, new or
used. Any engine fuel sold at retail must have a designation
and meet specifications provided by the ASTM;
(xxviii) "Ethanol" or "denatured fuel ethanol" means

substances before blending with gasoline;
(xxix) "Gasoline alcohol blend" means a fuel

meets ASTM D 975 standards, including grade low sulfur no. 1-D
S500 or grade low sulfur no. 2-D S500. Diesel fuel containing
higher amounts of sulfur for off-road use is defined by United
States environmental protection agency regulations;

and hydrocarbons of which the methanol portion is nominally
seventy percent (70%) to eighty-five percent (85%) volume;
