HF247 (Legislative Session 94 (2025-2026))

Nonoxygenated motor sports racing gasoline sales and storage requirements modified.

Related bill: SF581

AI Generated Summary

The bill introduced by Representative Koznick aims to amend a Minnesota state law concerning gasoline sales at retail stations. Specifically, the law would allow retail stations to have more than one tank for storing non-oxygenated gasoline, provided that certain conditions are met. This type of gasoline can be sold for use in collector vehicles, offroad vehicles, motorcycles, boats, snowmobiles, and small engines. However, if it is intended for small engines, the gasoline must be dispensed into a small can of no more than six gallons. Additionally, the gas pumps must clearly display a notice that the gasoline is only for specific types of vehicles and engines. Finally, stations selling this type of gasoline must register biennially with the relevant authority and report how much they sell each year. The bill proposes allowing a second storage tank for non-oxygenated gasoline at stations within five miles of a motor sports racing facility, increasing accessibility for specific uses.
