Do all service stations have to offer ULSD for sale?
No. The USLD regulations do not require service stations to sell ULSD. EPA’s rule (80 percent production/import mandate of ULSD) is intended to ensure that ULSD will be the dominant fuel during the phase-in period; however, there may be certain geographic locations where ULSD is not available. As a result, owners of post- 2007 model year trucks requiring ULSD may have to take additional precautions to ensure that they are able to refuel with ULSD. It is anticipated that most retail service stations that have only one diesel tank will sell ULSD exclusively. Larger service stations and tmcks stops with more than one diesel tank and the ability to completely segregate these products to avoid contamination will be more likely to have ULSD and LSD available. All retail outlets selling ULSD and/or conventional LSD are required to label their diesel fuel dispensers to indicate which fuel is being sold from that dispenser.
