1.10 	gasoline is sold or transferred from the refinery or terminal, a bill of lading or shipping 
1.11 	manifest to the person who receives the gasoline. For oxygenated gasoline, the bill of lading 
1.12 	or shipping manifest must include the identity and the volume percentage or gallons of 
1.13 	oxygenate included in the gasoline, and it must state: "This fuel contains an oxygenate. Do 
1.14 	not blend this fuel with ethanol or with any other oxygenate." For nonoxygenated gasoline, 
1.15 	the bill or manifest must state: "This fuel is not oxygenated. It must not be sold at retail in 
1.16 	Minnesota." This subdivision does not apply to sales or transfers of gasoline between

2.4 	content, exclusive of denaturants and other permitted components, is greater than ten percent 
2.5 	and no more than 50 percent by volume. This paragraph only applies to a person who is 
2.6 	responsible for selling intermediate blends at retail at more than ten locations. A person 
2.7 	responsible for the product at fewer than ten locations is not precluded from reporting the 
2.8 	gross number of intermediate blends if a report is available.
2.9 	(d) All reports provided pursuant to paragraph (c) are nonpublic data, as defined in 
2.10 	section 13.02, subdivision 9.
