2relating to: the use of methyl tertiary butyl ether in reformulated gasoline.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Current state law generally prohibits the sale of any gasoline except
reformulated gasoline in certain areas of this state, including areas in which federal
law requires the sale of reformulated gasoline because federal standards for ozone
in the atmosphere are exceeded. Reformulated gasoline is gasoline formulated to
reduce emissions of volatile organic compounds and toxic air pollutants.
This bill prohibits the sale of reformulated gasoline that contains methyl
tertiary butyl ether.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
