Adjust measured values as follows:
- (a)Adjust measured values for total vapor pressure as follows:
- (b)For measuring the sulfur content and benzene content of gasoline, adjust a given test result upward in certain circumstances, as follows:
- (1)If your test method involves a published procedure with a Pooled Limit of Quantitation (PLOQ), treat the PLOQ as your final result if your measured result is below the PLOQ.
- (2)If your test method involves a published procedure with a limited scope but no PLOQ, treat the lower bound of the scope as your final result if your measured result is less than that value.
- (3)If you establish a Laboratory Limit of Quantitation (LLOQ) below the lower bound of the scope of the procedure as specified in ASTM D6259 (incorporated by reference in § 1090.95), treat the LLOQ as your final result if your measured result is less than the LLOQ. Note that this option is meaningful only if the LLOQ is less than a published PLOQ, or if there is no published PLOQ.
- (c)For measuring the sulfur content of ULSD at a downstream location, subtract 2 ppm from the result.
- (d)For measuring the benzene content of butane and pentane, report a zero value if the test result is at or below the PLOQ or Limit of Detection (LOD) that applies for the test method.
- (e)If measured content of any oxygenate compound is less than 0.20 percent by mass, record the result as “None detected.”
