Update references relating to automotive spark-ignition engine fuel
LB 593 updates Nebraska's fuel standards by adopting the latest ASTM International specification (D4814-24b) for automotive spark-ignition engine fuel, replacing the outdated reference to D4814-89. It requires all gasoline and its oxygenate blends (like ethanol) sold in Nebraska to meet this new standard starting January 1, 1992. Fuel sellers who fail to comply face a Class I misdemeanor for the first violation and a Class IV felony for subsequent violations. The bill directly affects gas stations, fuel distributors, and manufacturers selling automotive fuel within the state.
