As far as Fullers, I recall seeing the 10% ethanol label last year. But they changed ownership since I recall looking.

MTBE/Ethanol was only an EPA requirement for the southern counties and into MA, central and northern NH as well as Maine did not fall under the smog reducing requirements therefore did not have to blend MTBE or Ethanol. Thats where we got lucky in that the marinas can still buy the gas barged into Portland, some of the stations on land I have seen go to E fuel probably because they get it supplied from Revere not Portland.
