Ala. Admin. Code r. 80-13-2-.03

Current through Register Vol. 43, No. 1, October 31, 2024
Section 80-13-2-.03 - Posting Of Price Per Gallon Required

All retail sellers of gasoline or other liquid motor vehicle fuels, who are presently, or who may in the future, sell their product by liter or any other system, other than by the gallon, shall, in addition to posting the price of the fuel in liter or other measure, post the price of said fuel by the gallon or fraction thereof.

(a) Said requirement is further defined as follows:
1. The price per gallon shall appear on all pumps dispensing the fuel, in letters or numbers the same, or larger size as the price per liter or other standard of measure.
2. The price per gallon shall appear at all other places, at the retail selling establishment, where the price per liter or other standard of measure is posted. Said price per gallon shall appear, in letters or numbers, the same size or larger than the posted price of any other measure.
3. It is the intent of this chapter to require the price per gallon to appear adjacent to or alongside of the posted price per liter so that the buying public can, with no difficulty, be able to compare the price per liter, or other standard of measure, with its corresponding price per gallon.

Deviations from the above requirement shall only be allowed as provided in Rule no. 80-13-2-.04 below.

4. The price per gallon, corresponding to the liter price, required to be posted above, need only be shown to the nearest one cent. A fraction of one cent is allowed if the retailer so desires.
