OAR 340-215-0110
Requirements for Fuel Suppliers and In-State Producers


Fuel suppliers and in-state producers including but not limited to gasoline, distillate fuel oil, propane, and aircraft fuel dealers required to register and report under OAR 340-215-0030 (Applicability)(3), but not including natural gas suppliers, must:

(1)

Report all quantities of fuel disbursed for use in the state by fuel type, regardless of whether the fuel is intended for transportation or non-transportation use and regardless of whether the fuel is subject to state or federal fuel taxes. Such reports must include the fuel type and quantity imported, sold, or distributed for use in this state during the previous year and quantities must be reported in standard cubic feet for gaseous fuels and gallons for liquid fuels. In addition:

(a)

Fuel suppliers and in-state producers who report renewable biomass-derived fuels must provide supporting documentation as required under OAR 340-215-0044 (Emissions Data Reports)(5); and

(b)

Meeting the requirements of this division does not replace the requirements that must be met in order to satisfy the requirements of OAR chapter 340 division 253 for any given fuel supplier subject to the Oregon Clean Fuels Program (CFP);

(2)

For reporting of regulated fuels as defined under OAR chapter 340 division 253, comply with OAR chapter 340 division 253 and submit quarterly and annual reports. In annual reports, persons dealing in regulated fuels as defined by OAR 340-253-0200 (Regulated and Clean Fuels)(2) may further report fuel volumes by individual fuel type as defined in 40 C.F.R. part 98 subpart MM. If volumes are not reported by individual fuel type, default emission factors defined in 40 C.F.R. part 98 subpart MM must be used for emissions calculation purposes;

(3)

For reporting all other fuels not reported as regulated fuels under section (3) including, but not limited to, importers and producers of opt-in fuels and small importers of finished fuels as defined by OAR 340-253-0040 (Definitions)(86), report fuel imported or produced in the state during the previous year by fuel type as defined in 40 C.F.R. part 98 subpart MM. Report as follows:

(a)

Report the type and quantity in gallons of fuel owned at the time the fuel is brought into Oregon from out of state or produced in Oregon that is delivered directly to intermediate storage, retail, or end users,

(b)

Report the type and quantity in gallons of fuel owned and dispersed from terminals in Oregon as a position holder. This applies to the fuel supplier owning the fuel at the loading rack as it is being dispensed;

(c)

If formulations are unknown for a given quantity of gasoline, report that quantity of gasoline using the fuel type “Gasoline formulation unknown.” If distillate or residual fuel oil numbers are unknown for a given quantity of distillate fuel oil, report that quantity using the fuel type “Diesel type unknown;” and

(d)

Exclude fuel for which a final destination outside of Oregon can be demonstrated; and

(4)

For all fuel suppliers and in-state producers, calculate and report the CO2, CO2 from biomass-derived fuels, CH4, N2O, and CO2e emissions in metric tons that would result from the complete combustion or oxidation of the annual quantity of fuel imported, sold, or distributed for use in this state. In such reports, GHG emissions must be calculated as follows:

(a)

Utilize emission quantification methodology prescribed in 40 C.F.R. part 98 subpart MM and equation MM-1 as specified in 40 C.F.R. 98.393(a)(1) to calculate the CO2 emissions and CO2 from biomass-derived fuels that would result from the complete combustion of the fuel reported under this division;

(b)

Calculate CH4 and N2O emissions using equation C–8 and Table C-2 as required in 40 C.F.R. 98.33(c)(1); and

(c)

Utilize a DEQ assigned emission factor for fuel and emission types not listed in 40 C.F.R. part 98.
