Gas sales temporarily stopped at 15 Triangle stations. Here's where and why

State inspectors found issues with gas pumps at 15 Triangle stations, pausing sales to help protect consumers. Inspectors from the Standards Division of the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services visited dozens of stations across the Triangle area between Aug. 19 and Oct. 31, records obtained by The News & Observer show. Many of the pumps had no problems, but at a handful of stations in Wake, Durham and Johnston counties, inspectors found issues that could harm consumers. When that happens, inspectors “tag” pumps, meaning they are taken out of service until issues are resolved. Some of the inspections were routine, but visits to 19 stations were prompted by consumer complaints. Chad Parker, measurement manager with the Standards Division, previously told me that complaints tick up when gas prices rise. Prices have started to drop over the past month, after the law that paused the state’s collection of the motor fuels tax went into effect in early October. But in the months leading up to that, since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran, gas has been expensive. Average prices for a gallon of regular gas in North Carolina increased from $3.72 Aug. 19 to $4.15 Sept. 19, before dropping to

Groups call on NC county to reject rezoning for Duke Energy project

On Monday, the Davidson County Planning Board will decide whether to rezone hundreds of acres along the Yadkin River for a new Duke Energy project. Opponents contend it will harm surrounding communities and the environment. A Duke Energy subsidiary wants to build its Davie-Davidson Energy Complex along the Yadkin River, which requires major infrastructure and rezoning approvals. Davie County officials certified two proposed methane power plants as public utilities, allowing Duke Energy to build on land zoned residential and agricultural. The decision was made without a public hearing or special use permit. Davidson County officials voted in favor of rezoning land for a liquid natural gas storage facility for heavy industrial use. A final vote is scheduled for Monday. Nicole Eastman, Yadkin Riverkeeper, argued the facility isn't a public utility and said such a project should only be built in areas zoned for heavy industrial use. "It really doesn't make sense for two massive power plants that would draw a lot of water from the Yadkin River, and also would be discharging back into the river and contributing to air pollution," Eastman stressed. If approved, it would be the largest liquefied natural gas storage facility in the corporation’s history. The
