Eleven filling stations, the old term for gas stations, were closed at the orders of the Specialized Corps for the Control of Fuels (Cecom). The eleven stations also sold LPG (propane) for vehicular use, and the agency, part of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, said that this posed a danger to the public. Any gasoline station that also sells propane must have a special permit, or the station will be closed. Cecom spokesperson Daniel Rodriguez argued that Cecom is not opposed to the sale of propane at gasoline stations, but that the very strict conditions for such sales must be met and written permission must be obtained from the ministry.
