Customers purchasing the FLO-FAST system are responsible for knowing their state and the federal laws pertaining to fuel containers.
Note: On February 12, 2006, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) enacted the following regulation for "Portable Fuel Containers" that also
affects the labeling requirements for Utility Jugs:
2467.1 (a) (12) "Portable Fuel Container" means any container or vessel with a nominal capacity of ten gallons or less intended for reuse that is
designed, used, sold, advertised, or offered for sale for receiving, transporting, storing, and dispensing fuel or kerosene. Portable fuel containers do
not include containers or vessels permanently embossed or permanently labeled with language indicating said containers or vessels are solely
intended for use with non-fuel or non-kerosene products.
In order to comply with this new regulation, utility jug manufacturers must now state a purpose for the product. These jugs will be labeled as stated in
49 Code of Federal Regulations Section 172.407(a). These jugs are not to be used as portable fuel containers in states that require spill-proof systems.
