ARTICLE III. STAGE 2 VAPOR RECOVERY SYSTEMS (4-108-190 et seq.)
4-108-190 Definitions.
   Whenever used in this article, unless the context requires a different meaning:
   A.   "Commissioner" means the commissioner of business affairs and consumer protection.
   B.   "Department" means the department of business affairs and consumer protection.
   C.   "Gasoline" means any conventional, reformulated, or otherwise blended volatile liquid suitable for use as a motor vehicle fuel, excluding diesel fuel and kerosene.
   D.   "Gasoline transport vehicle" means any truck, trailer or railroad tank car, with a capacity of 300 gallons or more, used for the transportation of gasoline.
   E.   "Monthly volume" means the amount of gasoline dispensed from a gasoline dispensing facility during any calendar month. For facilities in continuous existence since November 15, 1988, the average monthly volume will be based on the monthly sales for the period November 15, 1988 to November 15, 1990. For other facilities, the commissioner shall prescribe by rule the method of computing monthly volume.
   F.   "Gasoline-dispensing facility" or "facility" means any site where gasoline storage tanks are maintained and operated in the refueling of motor vehicles.
   G.   "Vapor collection and recovery system" means a vaportight collection system or other system that removes and collects at least 90 percent, by weight, of gasoline vapors that are generated during refueling of a motor vehicle, and prevents the release of the vapors into the atmosphere.
