Both Urbana and all Frederick stations at Route 85 are OUT of fuel due to the new restrictions vis a vis ethanol. Lines are very long further north.

Just an fyi for those who live around here....

Edited to say - for those who don't know. Ethanol cannot be transported via pipes due to the condensation it causes so it can only be shipped via rail tankers. Maryland has a required percentage of fuel that must contain ethanol, so now supplies are limited.

Thanks for the tip, Dea. If you head south on 85 from Frederick into Buckeystown, the Buckeystown Market has gas and no line. Of course, I don't think I have ever seen a line for gas there . . . .Not cheap but at least they do have gas.

Thanks Dea!

Thanks for the heads-up here & via Dmail! Fortunately, we filled up on our way home from Pittsburgh today.... hopefully the situation will resolve by the time I need another tankful. Yikes.
