The company treats fees as an operating expense and spreads them across its service area, with about 1.5 percent charged to gas sold in each area. Destin contemplates a fee, but council has not acted yet, effectively subsidizing Fort Walton Beach Niceville Valparaiso Cinco Bayou Mary Ester and Crestview.

The Destin Coast Guard Station, with police and local agencies, used four-wheel drives to keep the boat off the rocks as the captain mistook the jetty layout for the west jetty. The crew reported the vessel hugged light number two and was guided away from danger.
