(1) Store a commercially reasonable quantity of the designated clean fuel at the outlet and offer the fuel for sale to the public, during the same hours that gasoline is offered for sale. However, an operator shall not be liable for failure to comply with this section 2310(a)(1) if the operator demonstrates s/he was unable to comply because of a natural disaster such as an earthquake or flood, and act of war or an act by a public enemy, a civil disorder or riot, the expropriation or confiscation of facilities or property, or the operation of law.
(2) Maintain the designated clean fuel dispensing equipment in good operation conditions.
(3) Keep the designated clean fuel dispenser area substantially as well-illuminated as the gasoline dispensing area during nighttime operation.
(4) Keep the designated clean fuel dispenser area and pad substantially as clean as the gasoline dispenser area and pad.
(b) The operator of a selected retail clean fuel outlet not equipped to dispense gasoline to the general public shall do all of the following with respect to the designated clean fuel(s) that the outlet is equipped to dispense:
(1) Maintain reasonable access to the clean fuel dispensing equipment.
(2) Maintain the designated clean fuel dispensing equipment in good operating condition.
(3) Provide a payment option that does not require the purchaser to establish an account with the operator.
(c) The operator of any selected retail clean fuel outlet shall do all of the following with respect to the designated clean fuel(s) that the outlet is equipped to dispense:
(1) If the designated clean fuel dispensers are at any time in a consumer self-service mode, post at all times in a conspicuous and convenient location directions illustrating the use of the dispensing equipment.
(2) Display on the premises a sign which discloses that the clean fuel outlet offers the designated clean fuel for sale, and which is clearly visible from the street or highway adjacent to the outlet, provided that the operator shall not be required to display a sign in a manner inconsistent with applicable local ordinances.
