or T90 set forth in section 2262.

(b) Compliance by producers and importers with the flat

limits. No producer or importer shall sell, offer for sale,

supply, or offer for supply from its production facility

or import facility California gasoline which exceeds an

applicable flat limit for the properties of sulfur, benzene, aromatic hydrocarbons, olefins, T50, or T90 set

forth in section 2262, unless the gasoline (1) is subject

to the averaging compliance option for the property in

accordance with section 2264.2(a), (2) has been reported as a PM alternative gasoline formulation pursuant to

that produces gasoline and that has elected to be subject

to the flat limits specified in section 2262 shall offset its

emissions associated with permeation by complying

with sections 2265.5(b)-(i). An importer that does not

produce gasoline shall not sell, offer for sale, supply, or

offer for supply California gasoline if the gasoline creates emissions associated with permeation.

(c) Optional compliance by producers and importers

with the averaging limits. No producer or importer shall

sell, offer for sale, supply, or offer for supply from its

production facility or import facility California gasoline

which is subject to the averaging compliance option for

the properties of sulfur, benzene, aromatic hydrocarbons, olefins, T50 or T90 in accordance with section

2264.2(a) if any of the following occurs. Notwithstanding section 2265.5(a), a producer or an importer that

produces gasoline and that has elected to be subject to

an averaging limit specified in section 2262 shall offset

its emissions associated with permeation by complying

with sections 2265.5(b)-(i). An importer that does not

produce gasoline shall not sell, offer for sale, supply, or

offer for supply California gasoline if the gasoline creates emissions associated with permeation.

(1) The gasoline exceeds the applicable averaging limit

for the property set forth in section 2262 and no designated alternative limit for the property has been established for the gasoline in accordance with the requirements of section 2264(a); or

(2) A designated alternative limit for the property has

been established for the gasoline in accordance with the

requirements of section 2264(a), and the gasoline exceeds the designated alternative limit for that property;

or

(3) Where the designated alternative limit exceeds the

averaging limit for the property, the exceedance is not

fully offset in accordance with section 2264(c).

(d) Optional compliance by producers or importers that

produce gasoline with the PM emissions offsetting compliance option. No producer or importer that produces

gasoline shall sell, offer for sale, supply, or offer for

supply from its production facility or import facility a

final blend of California gasoline as a PM emissions

offsetting formulation subject to the designated emissions offsetting limits if any of the following occurs:

(1) The gasoline exceeds any of the designated emissions offsetting limits for sulfur, benzene, aromatic hydrocarbons, olefins, oxygen, T50, or T90 for the final

blend; or

(2) The gasoline exceeds the designated emissions offsetting limit for the final blend for RVP during any of

the regulatory control periods in section 2262.4(b)(2).

(3) The excess emissions of oxides of nitrogen, total

ozone forming potential, or the potency-weighted toxics

associated with excess sulfur in a final blend of gasoline

is not fully and timely offset in accordance with section

2265.1(c).

(4) The gasoline required to be offset and the offsetting

gasoline are sold, offered, or supplied in different regions where the gasoline is normally offered for sale.
