Chapter 55 - Gasoline and Petroleum Products
§ 75-55-6. Name and/or brand name; registration; octane rating; forms; motor fuel pumps; appeal from denial of registration; termination of registration; prohibitions

The commissioner or his agent, in his discretion, may refuse to permit any name or brand of gasoline where a similar name or brand has already been permitted. The sale of any product under any brand name that is not registered with the department or does not meet the standards of the registration form shall not be permitted. Pumps shall be locked down until the product or products have been duly registered or brought up to specifications.
The commissioner is further authorized and empowered following the terms of the Mississippi Administrative Procedures Act to make such reasonable rules and regulations, particularly in emergency situations, which, in his judgment, will contribute to a more efficient administration of this article. Such rules and regulations, when made, shall have the same binding force and effect as if incorporated in this article; provided further, that such rules and regulations made during the said emergency periods shall be withdrawn following cessation of any such emergencies.
The commissioner is hereby authorized to prohibit the sale of any taxable petroleum product which is not in compliance with the provisions of this chapter.
