Fuel shortage slams Aleutian village
Anchorage, Alaska (AP)
The tiny Aleutian village of Nikolski has asked the state to declare an emergency because of its ongoing problems getting fuel. Stormy weather has kept a barge from making a bulk delivery and the community of 30 has had to fly in small, expensive batches of heating oil for heat and power. Fuel in Nikolski has been selling for nearly $11 a gallon, more than double the normal cost there. |
