Portable fuel containers, generally known as gas cans, are constructed and produced per strict U.S. requirements and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The latest EPA standards have been in place since 2009 and include unique elements that reduce air emissions and improve protection.
A portable fuel container (PFC) is a container explicitly built to enable small liquid fuel quantities. The containers can differ in length and width from one quarter to five gallons or more. They are usually used by residents to store the fuel for snowblowers, lawnmowers, and other small-scale machinery. The EPA reports that nearly 80 million fuel containers are being used in the United States.
The risk of leaked or evaporated fuels occurs in volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which enter the atmosphere when the gas escapes a fuel container. Proposed laws concentrate on VOCs' ability to penetrate through the materials and fittings of the container and on pollutants emitted when fuel is poured out or when fuel container covers and caps are left out or left open on storage. VOCs are known to be greenhouse gases, and their emission can also cause water pollution.
It is permissible to continue using old fuel containers that do not comply with the current EPA guidelines, but converting to new certified fuel containers offers enhanced protection and reduced potential harm to the environment. The new rules extend only to the latest fuel containers, and there are no provisions for residents to replace existing fuel containers. However, several cities have exchange services to switch your old fuel containers for a new, compliant one.
