# §59.601. Do the requirements of this subpart apply to me?

- (a) Unless specified otherwise in this subpart, the requirements and prohibitions of this subpart apply to all manufacturers and importers of portable fuel containers. Certain prohibitions in [§ 59.602](/cfr/40/59.602.md) apply to all other persons.
- (b) New portable fuel containers that are subject to the emissions standards of this part must be covered by a certificate of conformity that is issued to the manufacturer of the container.

- (c) Unless specifically noted otherwise, the term “you” means manufacturers, as defined in [§ 59.680](/cfr/40/59.680.md).
