Testing and Reporting
 5. (1) The person required by section 2, 3 or 4 to comply with this section shall cause the vapour pressure of every batch of motor gasoline to be determined and recorded by a laboratory, (a)  which is accredited for the determination of vapour pressure by a laboratory accreditation program approved by the Director and sponsored by an organization under the auspices of the Standards Council of Canada; and (b)  which both determines vapour pressure, subject to subsection (1.1), and makes a record of its determinations in a manner consistent with the accreditation program. O. Reg. 271/91, s. 5 (1); O. Reg. 533/22, s. 4 (1). (1.1) For the purposes of determining the vapour pressure of motor gasoline under subsection (1), if the determined vapour pressure is not a whole number, the vapour pressure must be rounded to the nearest whole number in accordance with the rounding method set out in ASTM E29, “Standard Practice for Using Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with Specifications”, published by ASTM International, as it may be amended from time to time, and the vapour pressure must be recorded using that whole number. O. Reg. 533/22, s. 4 (2). (2) The person required by section 2, 3 or 4 to comply with this section shall keep each record prepared under subsection (1) for at least five years. O. Reg. 271/91, s. 5 (2); O. Reg. 533/22, s. 4 (3). (3) The person required by section 2, 3 or 4 to comply with this section shall, during the same year in which the records are prepared under subsection (1), prepare a summary of the records for the following periods: 1.  The period that begins on the 16th day of May and ends on the 15th day of June. 2.  The period that begins on the 16th day of June and ends on the 15th day of July. 3.

Reg. 533/22, s. 4 (4). (4) The summary shall contain the information required by the Director and shall be prepared by the 30th day of September in each year in which the records are prepared under subsection (1). O. Reg. 533/22, s. 4 (5). (4.1) The person required by section 2, 3 or 4 to comply with this section shall, (a)  keep the summary prepared under this section for a period of five years following the day the summary was required to be prepared; and (b)  produce the summary that is required to be kept under clause (a) to the Director upon request. O. Reg. 533/22, s. 4 (5). (5) Subsection (1) does not apply to a person required to comply with this section by subsection 3 (3) (Importer Testing) if, (a)  the refiner of the motor gasoline has had the vapour pressure of the motor gasoline determined in accordance with a procedure referred to in section 6 by a laboratory described in clauses (l) (a) and (b); (b)  the person obtains from the refiner, (i)  a copy of the record of the vapour pressure determination, and (ii)  written assurance that the refiner will keep the original record for at least five years and will make it available, upon request, to the person or a provincial officer for inspection; and (c)  the person complies with subsections (3), (4) and (4.1). O. Reg. 271/91, s. 5 (5); O. Reg. 533/22, s. 4 (6, 7). (6) Subsections (3), (4) and (4.1) do not apply to a person required to comply with this section by subsection 3 (3) (Importer Testing) if the batch does not exceed 25,000 litres.  O. Reg. 271/91, s. 5 (6); O. Reg. 533/22, s. 4 (8). Test Methodology
