Any propane rationing? - Guest - 01-15-2011 There is a serious shortage on Maui until one refinery gets back in the saddle. People who depend on gas are having a hard time. Kaua'i too is rationing tank refills. I've not heard a peep out of Punaweb. Has this island escaped the crunch? RE: Any propane rationing? - pslamont - 01-15-2011 My provider here in Glenwood has a sign up: Propane, No Mo. Am hoping to score some in Hilo proper. I want to be the kind of woman that, when my feet hit the floor each morning, the devil says "Oh Crap, She's up!" RE: Any propane rationing? - missydog1 - 01-15-2011 Thank you Pam! On Maui the trucks that do the refills on home tanks are doing 30% and that's it until the end of the month. One company can't get anything, and the other (Gaspro?) can't get enough the service customers of both companies. RE: Any propane rationing? - Andrew - 01-16-2011 Kathy thank you so much for the heads up. I owe you a hug and a kiss next time we meet. I made it to Malama propane early Sunday after reading your warning and got my propane tank filled up. They were down to 20% capacity and so far are not rationing. Hot showers and meat loaf still on the horizon thanks to you. ![]() Aloha, Andrew ps They had a sign on cardboard and black marker all ready reading propane is gone! edited to add postscript RE: Any propane rationing? - missydog1 - 01-16-2011 Excellent, fantastic that this was helpful to you Andrew!

RE: Any propane rationing? - Kapohocat - 01-18-2011 Any word on how long it will last? Last time it was a month or six weeks. I think it was in 2006? RE: Any propane rationing? - Obie - 01-18-2011 The refinery has been repaired and is back up and running.Regular delivers should resume soon. RE: Any propane rationing? - Funkstopper - 01-18-2011 Thanks for the Update. Unfortunately I read this post after I just got back from trying to find gas. javascript:insertsmilie('[:0]') Oh well I do live on an Island 2000 miles from nowhere.javascript:insertsmilie('[^]') That is a very small inconvenience for having the privilege to live here. jim RE: Any propane rationing? - HawaiiTedd - 01-20-2011 Hiranos was rationing.
