Inspection reveals containers lack gas ( 2003-08-22 10:53) (China Daily)
The gas authority in Hefei, Anhui Province has discovered that many canisters
sold at some stations do not contain enough gas, and some are only half full,
reports Jianghuai Morning Post.
The administrative office overseeing gas for home use inspected stations
lining the city's streets on Tuesday.
Some 15-kilo canisters were found to contain just 10 kilos of gas, while some
10-kilo canisters held only 4.5 kilos.
One station at Jixi Road had apparently released part of the gas from all 29
containers in stock. Every single container was short 2.5 kilograms of gas.
The office has issued fines to about 20 such gas stations since the beginning
of the month.
