heating oil sold for use in residential, commercial, or industrial

heating within the state shall not have a sulfur content greater than

fifteen parts per million.

(2) The governor may, by issuing an executive order, temporarily

research and development authority, that meeting the requirement of

subdivision one of this section is not feasible due to lack of adequate

supply of the required fuel.
