(a) Definitions.

(1) A foreign refinery is a refinery that is located outside the United States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (collectively referred to in this section as “the United States”).

(2) A foreign refiner is a person who meets the definition of refiner under §80.2(i) for a foreign refinery.

(3) Toxics-FRGAS means gasoline produced at a foreign refinery that has been assigned an individual refinery toxics baseline under §80.915 and that is imported into the U.S.

(4) Non-Toxics-FRGAS means gasoline that is produced at a foreign refinery that has not been assigned an individual refinery toxics baseline, gasoline produced at a foreign refinery with an individual refinery toxics baseline that is not imported into the United States, and gasoline produced at a foreign refinery with an individual toxics baseline during a year when the foreign refiner has opted to not participate in the Toxics-FRGAS program under paragraph (c)(3) of this section.

(5) Certified Toxics-FRGAS means Toxics-FRGAS the foreign refiner intends to include in the foreign refinery's toxics compliance calculations under §80.825, and does include in these compliance calculations when reported to EPA.

(6) Non-Certified Toxics-FRGAS means Toxics-FRGAS that is not Certified Toxics-FRGAS.

(b) Baseline establishment. Any foreign refiner may submit a petition to the Administrator for an individual refinery toxics baseline pursuant to §80.915 for all gasoline that was produced at the foreign refinery and imported into the United States between January 1, 1998 and December 31, 2000.

(1) The refiner shall follow the procedures specified in §§80.91 through 80.93 to establish an anti-dumping baseline, if it does not already have such a baseline.

(2) In making determinations for foreign refinery baselines, EPA will consider all information supplied by a foreign refiner, and in addition may rely on any and all appropriate assumptions necessary to make such determinations.

(3)

(i) Where a foreign refiner submits a petition that is incomplete or inadequate to establish an accurate toxics baseline, and the refiner fails to cure this defect after a request for more information, EPA will not assign an individual refinery toxics baseline.

(ii) If a foreign refiner does not already have an anti-dumping individual baseline per §80.94, and if pursuant to §80.94(b)(5) EPA does not assign an individual anti-dumping baseline, EPA will also not assign an individual refinery toxics baseline.

(c) General requirements for foreign refiners with individual refinery toxics baselines. A foreign refiner of a refinery that has been assigned an individual toxics baseline according to §80.915 shall designate all gasoline produced at the foreign refinery that is exported to the United States as either Certified Toxics-FRGAS or as Non-Certified Toxics-FRGAS, except as provided in paragraph (c)(3) of this section.

(1) In the case of Certified Toxics-FRGAS, the foreign refiner shall meet all provisions that apply to refiners under this subpart J.

(2) In the case of Non-Certified Toxics-FRGAS, the foreign refiner shall meet all the following provisions, except the foreign refiner shall use the name Non-Certified Toxics-FRGAS instead of the names “reformulated gasoline” or “RBOB” wherever they appear in the following provisions:
