Are gasoline and gasohol reported separately?
Gasoline and gasohol should be reported separately. If they are not, this should be cited as a deficiency. The State should be encouraged to report actual gasohol gallons; if this is not possible, then the State should develop an acceptable procedure for estimating gasohol gallons. Gasohol gallons reported in Columbia 2 should be excluded from gasoline reported in Columbia 1. • Does your State collect any gasohol gallonage information separate from gasoline? Gasoline/alcohol blends include: alcohol produced from petroleum, natural gas, or coal. Gasoline/alcohol blends, of which the alcohol is less than 190 proofs, or blends which have an alcohol content of 5.7% or less by volume, should be excluded. If your State has this data on gasohol gallons, report that data in column 2 on the form FHWA-551M. • For other than diesel fuel, do gross gallons reported include: • Sales to the U.S. Government (including military and National Guards)? • Loses? • Other classes of use (including aviation)
