Each new revision of the standards adopted by reference in subsection 1 shall be deemed approved by the Board unless the revision is disapproved by the Board or its designee within 120 days after the date of publication of the revision by SAE International. A copy of each standard is available for inspection pursuant to NAC 590.045 and may be purchased from SAE International, 400 Commonwealth Drive, Warrendale, PA 15096-0001, or at the Internet address http://www.sae.org for the price of $83.3. All motor oil offered for sale in this State must meet the standard set forth in SAE J183.
