Shell Sues FEA Over Station Rental Policy
Shell Oil Co filed a federal suit to declare unlawful a Federal Energy Administration policy on service station rental costs.

The suit targets rentals set on Shell stations and sub stations leased, arguing charges do not reflect gasoline prices. Shell leases about 10 000 stations and seeks relief from the ruling.
