===============================================================
The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry has decided to seek amendments
to legislation governing the quality of gasoline. The objective of the revisions
would be to permit the mixture of biomass material such as alcohol derived
from plants to be mixed gasoline. Such gasoline is already being utilized
in the USA, but this will be the first time in Japan.
