gas station owners had ample time to make, given that the law passed in 2014. Efforts to idle single-walled tanks have in fact been ongoing for decades in California and nationwide. Yet Kim and other gas station franchisees see these construction projects as so expensive and onerous that they aren’t worth pursuing.
wtf is this article for… is this sympathy for people who knew the law changed, refused and accepted they would close… or is this sympathy crap defined to defend gas companies wanting zero laws/rules/regulations.
It’s to explain why some of our local gas stations are fenced up.
I’ve encountered 2 of them just this week.
They’re still listed as open, but when I arrived, they were fenced.
I’m kind of surprised that it costs $2 million to put a new tank in. I’d have thought it’d be less.
Bay Farm Island is a fuel desert
Fuck the fuck off 🤣
Oh no, how will people survive with cleaner air and safer soil.
Reading that article turned me from “oh well probably worth it for environmental reasons” to “RIP Bozo”
