Jun 26, 2023State officials find water in fuel tank - Western Wayne News
Oct 19, 2024State officials have confirmed that nearly 6 inches of water was found in an underground gas storage tank at a Fountain City fuel station and that remediation must take place before gas can be sold again from that tank.
After conducting an inspection, Indiana Department of Health’s Division of Weights and Measures found 5.75 inches of water in the bottom of the 87-octane underground storage tank at Fountain City Food Mart.
Sales of 87- and 89-octane gasolines were immediately stopped at the Marathon station at 402 S. U.S. 27, according to Lisa Welch, IDOH’s media relations coordinator.
Welch said the station was given instructions for remediation and to contact IDOH for retesting prior to resuming sales. As of Oct. 7, IDOH hadn’t been contacted for retesting.
Welch shared these remediation steps:
Customers seeking compensation for any expenses or damage caused by a bad fuel purchase must work directly with the gas station management or with the help of an insurance company and/or legal counsel, Welch said. IDOH isn’t involved in that process beyond the documentation of findings based on investigation of complaints.
