Atlanta’s Gasoline Supply Pipelines Working Again
Panicky SUV-drivers filling up en masse might provoke more shortages, but today’s AJC reports that gasoline is once again flowing to Atlanta.
And by evening, both major gasoline pipelines to Atlanta were pumping again.
Alpharetta-based Colonial Pipeline Co. was pumping at 25 percent to 35 percent of capacity.
Plantation Pipe Line Co. also started pumping at 25 percent.
The pipelines had gone down when they lost electrical power at pumping stations hit by the hurricane.
