, * f i P age 2 c } July 19,1985 Self-Service gas— S pilyay T ymoo J Pump your own and save W ith gas prices on the rise, it- would be nice to get a break in the cost somewhere dow n the line. Tribal members, hopefully within the next two weeks or so, will get ju st that. As a “conven ience service” to tribal members, t^e tribal garage has installed an $17,000 card , lock system th at will enable participants to pump their own gas, day or night, seven days a week, at a substantial savings. ? The new system, for now, is limited to tribal mem ber use, b u fit may eventually be open to others who qualify. Tribal mem-.. bers m ust not have any out- ‘ standing debts with tribal enter prises such as w ith’housing or the tribal garage ift' order -to qualify. “Y our credit has to be good,” said enterprise m anager D elford Johnson. „ Once accepted into the pro gram, participants willbe issued a card sim ilar in looks to a credit card. And, to get gas, a person need only insert the card into a slot on the “reader sta tion,” punch in a security number and. current mileage and select which type of fuel is needed, whether it be regular, unleaded or diesel. Cost of the gas will be approxi mately eight cents above cost. Right now, it is estimated that regular gas will cost abouf$ 1.16 per gallonl unleaded about $ 1.2T per gallon and diesel about $1 per gallon. Billing will be either through payroll deduction or invoice statem ent billing with paym ent due on the tenth of the month. To determine eligibility for the new program, tribal members m ust cojnpleteapplications and*. Submit them to the,crédit depart ment. A ccording to Johnson, about 20 people have applied so far. S tart-up date for the new sys tem was expected this week, but due to vandalism which occurred last week to the key access board on the card reader station, start up has been delayed until the first of August.
