Federal law — U.S. Code and appendices · legal_authorities
**(a) Congressional statement of findings and purpose** The Congress finds and declares that acid precipitation resulting from other than natural sources—
(1) could contribute to the increasing pollution of natural and man-made water systems;
(2) could adversely affect agricultural and forest crops;
(3) could adversely affect fish and wildlife and natural ecosystems generally;
(4) could contribute to corrosion of metals, wood, paint, and masonry used in construction and ornamentation of buildings and public monuments;
(5) could adversely affect public health and welfare; and
(6) could affect areas distant from sources and thus involve issues of national and international policy.
**(b) Congressional declaration of purpose** The Congress declares that it is the purpose of this subchapter—
(1) to identify the causes and sources of acid precipitation;
(2) to evaluate the environmental, social, and economic effects of acid precipitation; and
(3) based on the results of the research program established by this subchapter and to the extent consistent with existing law, to take action to the extent necessary and practicable (A) to limit or eliminate the identified emissions which are sources of acid precipitation, and (B) to remedy or otherwise ameliorate the harmful effects which may result from acid precipitation.
**(c) “Acid precipitation” defined** For purposes of this subchapter the term “acid precipitation” means the wet or dry deposition from the atmosphere of acid chemical compounds.

TITLE 42—THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND WELFARE
§ 8901
Security Act (94 Stat. 710; Public Law 96–294; 42 U.S.C.
8871), in order to require Federal agencies which own or
lease motor vehicles to use gasohol in those vehicles
which are capable of operating on gasohol where it is
available at reasonable prices and in reasonable quan-
tities, it is hereby ordered as follows:
1–101. In procurement actions for unleaded gasoline
motor fuel, Federal agencies shall, whenever feasible,
specify that gasohol is an acceptable substitute motor
fuel. In such procurements there shall be a preference
for the purchase of gasohol.
1–102. Agencies may procure the components of gas-
ohol and do their own blending.
1–103. In determining the feasibility of specifying gas-
ohol as a substitute motor fuel in procurement actions
for unleaded gasoline, agencies shall include in their
considerations such factors as the availability of stor-
age facilities for bulk purchases and the number of ve-
hicles capable of operating on gasohol.
1–104. Agencies shall designate those vehicles which
are capable of using gasohol, consistent with overall
agency needs and sound vehicle management practices.
Agencies shall specify the conditions governing the use
of gasohol, including when gasohol shall be purchased
from normal retail outlets by vehicle operators.
1–105. The use of gasohol by the Department of De-
fense pursuant to this Order shall be in accordance
with Section 815 of the Department of Defense Author-
ization Act, 1980 (93 Stat. 817; Public Law 96–107; 10
U.S.C. 2388 note) which provides for the use of gasohol
to the maximum extent feasible and consistent with
overall defense needs and sound vehicle management
practices, as determined by the Secretary of Defense.
