Marinas can carry non-ethanol gas because ethanol is horrible for marine-use so they get an exemption.
E-10 is a fact of life until the government decides to abandon it like Gas-A-Hol (back in the day)... Matter of fact they are looking at E-15 because the corn farmers need more subsides... Make no mistake what the real reason behind the legislation is.

Ethanol in gasoline is nothing more than a farm subsidy. It holds water in suspension more easily and is more susceptible to phase separation, causes poorer fuel mileage etc. I've never heard anyone speak highly of the crap. I wouldn't be surprised if they wanted to up it to E-15, more subsidy per gallon + even worse fuel mileage means more gallons sold and in turn more subsidy for the farmers. That one pretty much works out two-fold for the farmers.
As far as that list goes, I'm not sure how up to date it is, I found it awhile back and stopped in Heflin, AL on the way back from the lake once and they had all converted to E-10. Is it even legal to sell ethanol free fuel outside of a marina anymore?
Honestly I don't think it is , but I guess it depends in the county . Emission controlled counties and citys I am sure can NOT sale the Ethanol free
Yeah, I'm not sure of the legality of it. I'd also imagine that actually being able to get pure gas would be pretty hard in the first place.
