Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.

All leaded and unleaded gasoline sold in this State shall meet or exceed
the following minimum octane numbers:

octane number shall not be less than 82.0. All gasoline products sold at
retail shall have an octane number displayed.
(c) Each seller of a motor fuel shall notify the purchaser of the type and
quantity of motor fuel purchased. For gasoline, the type shall indicate the
octane number. This information shall appear on the bill of lading, manifest,
or delivery ticket for the fuel. This subsection does not apply to sales at
retail.
(d) All gasoline products shall meet the most recently
adopted ASTM standards for spark-ignition motor fuel, and those standards
adopted under the provisions of the federal Clean Air Act by the U. S.
Environmental Protection Agency shall be the standards of this State in those
areas in which the federal Clean Air Act fuel standards apply.
(e) All biodiesel with a numerical value of B99 or above that is sold or offered for sale in the State of Illinois shall conform to the ASTM D6751 Standard Specification for Biodiesel Fuel Blend Stock (B100) for Middle Distillate Fuels.
