emissions.
2. Achievement of the

E. The provisions of this section do not
apply to sources using petroleum liquids with a vapor pressure less than 1.5
pounds per square inch absolute under actual storage conditions or, in the case
of loading or processing, under actual loading or processing conditions.
(Kerosene and fuel oil used for household heating have vapor pressures of less
than 1.5 pounds per square inch absolute under actual storage conditions;
therefore, kerosene and fuel oil are not subject to the provisions of this
section when used or stored at ambient temperatures).
