Warm greetings to you! Just 2/3 years back we were paying only $ 100 for each underground storage tanks at the gas station. It was tripled couple of years back to $ 300.00 per tank! A normal gas station has three tanks on average.The charges comes to $ 900.00 a year! There is hardly any margin in the gas plus huge competition. How can a very small business survive with such an exorbitant raise in the charges by the Government? Few gas stations in Columbia like me is owned by a women. As an entrepreneur Women should get a break in taxes not charged heavily. Looking at the above scenario can any gas station owner say that Govt. is helping small business owners? Thanking you Marziya
