Fuel inventories to be reported by trucking firms and railroads
The Federal Energy Office ordered 32 major trucking firms and all railroads to report current diesel and gasoline inventories by close of business. Energy Chief William E. Simon said the data will aid enforcement of the mandatory fuel allocation program amid suspected hoarding and possible penalties for violators. The move follows a DST shift and a Supreme Court denial on pricing controls affecting independent service stations.
