DEQ Allows Increased Fuel Transportation
(Salem, OR) -- The Oregon Environmental Quality Commission is giving waivers to fuel suppliers while the Olympic Pipeline is shut down. Work is underway to repair a leak near Everett, Washington. The Clean Fuels Program regulates the amount of fuel that's brought into the state by truck or train. Companies that aren't regulated by the program can bring an additional five million gallons. Companies that are regulated will have the extra fuel exempted. They will have to report the extra shipments within 45 days after the variance ends.
