Abstract
The Commission grants the petition of gasoline dispenser manufacturer Gilbarco, Inc. ("Gilbarco") requesting permission for ethanol flex fuel retailers to post ethanol flex fuel rating labels that differ from size and shape specifications in the Commission's Rule for Automotive Fuel Ratings, Certification and Posting ("Rule"). The Commission grants the partial exemption without a notice and comment period because "for good cause" the Commission finds that notice and comment is unnecessary in this case. The Commission previously granted similar requests from Gilbarco and other dispenser manufacturers without notice and comment procedures.
