Various issues <br />were discussed in reference to the fire code violations at the Beaudry Oil <br />facility. As a result of our meeting, Mr. Beaudry has concurred that the <br />above ground storage tanks shall be removed immediately.

Mr. Beaudry has <br />removed the propane tanks from this area and is in the process of planning <br />the future storage location of the propane tanks awaiting sale.
