Petroleum Products Franchise Act; divorcement clause.  Revises the divorcement requirement to provide that a refiner may operate a retail outlet only if it is not less than 1.5 miles from the nearest retail outlet operated by a dealer or jobber/distributor. A jobber/distributor is defined in this measure as a person who purchases motor fuel for sale, consignment, or distribution to another, or who receives motor fuel on consignment for consignment or distribution to his own motor fuel accounts or to accounts of his supplier. The measure also deletes requirements that the Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services adopt certain regulations relating to the divorcement provisions.
