1.1.2 The fuel sulfur grades are described as follows:
1.1.2.1 Grade B6 to B20 S15—A fuel with a maximum of 15 ppm sulfur.
1.1.2.2 Grade B6 to B20 S500—A fuel with a maximum of 500 ppm sulfur.
1.1.2.3 Grade B6 to B20 S5000—A fuel with a maximum of 5000 ppm sulfur.
1.2 This specification prescribes the required properties of B6 to B20 biodiesel blends at the time and place of delivery. The specification requirements may be applied at other points in the production and distribution system when provided by agreement between the purchaser and the supplier.
1.2.1 Nothing in this specification shall preclude observance of federal, state, or local regulations that may be more restrictive.
Note 1—The generation and dissipation of static electricity can create problems in the handling of distillate diesel fuel oils. For more information on this subject, see Guide D 4865
