Board has deleted the definition of "Pure Nitrogen" as listed in
article 10, section (c), Resolution 09-25, Attachment B, Posted May
6, 2009. I ask that "Pure Nitrogen" definition be restored in the
final regulatory language for the following reasons.
  
a.Nitrogen must be defined because it is mentioned in the document
at other places and may not be clearly known to consumers and
ASPs.

b. Nitrogen must be differentiated from "air" as it is referenced
as an alternate inflatant.
 
c. Nitrogen purity must be defined otherwise its purity will be
subject to misinterpretation and misrepresentation. Its use can be
fraudulent resulting in overcharging of consumer. For example, ASPs
may charge for "nitrogen" but use air claiming that it has 78.1%
purity.

d.To avoid this confusion, a simple solution would be for CA ARB
to retain the definition of "Pure Nitrogen" as listed in the
original Attachment B.
