Self-Service gas—

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

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.
