Shell stations on the Coast were not affected by the problem at the Norco refinery because the gas they sell comes from the Mobile area.
Tom Russell, owner of Russell’s Service Center on Scenic Drive in Pass Christian, said a number of customers asked him about the problem. “Ours comes out of Mobile,” he said. “This is different gas altogether. I doubt if anybody in this part of the country picks up in Norco anymore.”
