IIRC, the national standard is 10.1% this year (2009). It's in that report, somewhere.

You're still arguing the wrong point, though. You're saying (earlier) that you know that your particular gas stations aren't putting ethanol in your fuel. I oppose that, saying that you CAN'T know, unless you've seen an MSDS for the fuel you're using, and continue to read the updates and informationals on it.

To openly say that a gas station doesn't have ethanol in it's fuel is just plain fallacy, because you can't prove one way or the other.

BTW: The requirement for 2009 is 9.0 billion gallons, not sure what that comes to in percent of actual fuel consumption.
