New law to change status of fuel storage facilities

New regulation is to be introduced by the Polish government with an aim to adjust the Polish law to international norms. In line with the new regulation, fuel storage facilities of petrol station operators are to be certified and given a new status which will require investments worth over PLN 300mn (EUR 75.62mn USD 105.56mn). Experts claim that the new law is likely to lead to bankruptcy of many small petrol stations which will not be able to afford to pay for adjustments. Large petrol station networks such as Shell, BP, Lotos and PKN Orlen are also criticising the government's plan, according to Logistics Finland.
