Sec. 306.6  Certification

    In each transfer you make to anyone who is not a consumer, you must 
certify the automotive fuel rating of the automotive fuel consistent 
with your determination. You can do this in either of two ways:
    (a) Include a delivery ticket or other paper with each transfer of 
automotive fuel. It may be an invoice, bill of lading, bill of sale, 
terminal ticket, delivery ticket, or any other written proof of 
transfer. It must contain at least these four items:
    (1) Your name;
    (2) The name of the person to whom the automotive fuel is 
transferred;
    (3) The date of the transfer;
    (4) The automotive fuel rating. Octane rating numbers may be rounded 
off to a whole or half number equal to or less than the number 
determined by you.
    (b) Give the person a letter or other written statement. This letter 
must include the date, your name, the other person's name, and the 
automotive fuel rating of any automotive fuel you will transfer to that 
person from the date of the letter onwards. Octane rating numbers may be 
rounded to a whole or half number equal to or less than the number 
determined by you. This letter of certification will be good until you 
transfer automotive fuel with a lower automotive fuel rating. When this 
happens, you must certify the automotive fuel rating of the new 
automotive fuel either with a delivery ticket or by sending a new letter 
of certification.
    (c) When you transfer automotive fuel to a common carrier, you must 
certify the automotive fuel rating of the automotive fuel to the common 
carrier, either by letter or on the delivery ticket or other paper.
