        fuel by volume.

        considered to be sold or offered for sale, supplied or offered 
        for supply, dispensed, transported, or introduced into commerce 
        in accordance with this subsection if the renewable fuel 
        content, exclusive of denaturants and permitted contaminants,

            ``(3) Manifests and labeling.--By regulation effective 
        January 1, 2010, the Administrator shall require that each bill 
        of lading or transportation manifest for all gasoline

        vehicles.--The Administrator shall provide, by regulation, 
        for--
                    ``(A) appropriate notices to be displayed on 
                gasoline pumps--
                            ``(i) indicating the renewable fuel content 
                        of the gasoline dispensed by the pump; and
                            ``(ii) notifying the public of the 
                        prohibition under this subsection; and

                subsection in the case of gasoline for use in collector 
                motor vehicles, as defined by the Administrator.''; and
