Gas pump
discrimination
illegal
The Seattle Enforcement Office o f
the Department o f Energy (DOE) is
paying close attention to any action
by gasoline retailers that may be
viewed as giving special treatment to
preferred customers or requiring the
purchase o f a product or service with
the sale o f motor gasoline.
Lyle L. Nelson, Deputy District
Manager, Western District of Enforce
ment for DOE, said that the law does
not allow discrimination at the pumps
and his office will take the necessary
enforcement action to stop any prac
tice that tends to lim it sales to
preferred or regular customers.
Nelson added that DOE would have
no objection to a flag system, so long
as the system does not allow special
treatment for preferred customers.
DOE regulations also prohibit tie-in
sales, such as no gasoline without a
car wash, or requiring the purchase of
a product or service.
Consumer complaints concerning
price discrimination or tie-in sales
