| Benzene Content in Gasoline Precision Criterion (§1090.1365(b)) - The maximum allowable standard deviation computed from results of a minimum of 20 tests made over 20 days on samples using good laboratory practices taken from a single homogenous commercially available gasoline must be less than or equal to 0.15 times the Reproducibility (R), where "R" equals the ASTM reproducibility (R) of ASTM D5769-20 (IBR 1090.95(c)(25)), where R=0.221xX0.67. You may make up to 4 separate measurements in a 24-hour period, as long as the interval between measurements is at least 4 hours. Example: A 1 percent by volume benzne content gasoline sample: maximum allowable standard deviation of 20 tests less than or equal 0.15*(0.221 volume percent)=0.0332 volume percent. |

| VCSB Method Defined Criterion - The regulated party is utilizing the applicable ASTM D6708-19a (IBR 1090.95(c)(33)) assessment adjudicated by a Voluntary Consensus-based Standards Body (VCSB), such as the American Society for Testing and Materials International (ASTM International), demonstrates whether the comparison between the method-defined alternative test method and the EPA referee test method is a "null" result or whether a correlation equation needs to be applied that predicts EPA referee test method results, that is ASTM D5769-20 (IBR 1090.95(c)(25)), from the applicable method-defined alternative test method (see 1090 CFR 1365(d)). |
| Has 1090 CFR 1365(d) criterion been met? (Note: Please answer by typing "Yes" or "No" in the adjacent cell.) |
|
| If ASTM D6708 assessment between the candidate alternative test method and EPA referee test method, ASTM D5769-20, yields a "null" comparison, indicate so by typing not applicable. If the ATM D6708 assessment yields the need for a correlation equation, indicate the correlation equation needed for reporting purposes the regulatd party lists the correlation equation used for reporting purposes if warranted by the ASTM D6708-19a (IBR 1090.95(c)(33)) assessment comparing voluntary consensus-based standard body alternative test method to EPA referee test method, ASTM D5769-20 (see 1090 CFR 1365(d)). |
