    16. Preparation for Summer CBG Season with two types of fuel Kinder Morgan is allowing for both clear and blendstock to be delivered into Phoenix for this summer. The majority of the product coming in will be blendstock. However, there will be some clear.

    17. Preparation for Summer CBG Season with two types of fuel The Department has identified two potential issues: Comingling of the clear with the ethanol blended gasoline. This will result in the mixture being noncompliant. The only way to fix this is to pump it out. Potential supply problems due to these fuels not being fungible. Due to the large number of independently owned (95%) unbranded station, (63%) we expect to see comingling and a poor compliance rate. If we were to fail the summer time survey EPA could require additional reduction from refineries.
