Actually it's nationwide at all gas stations. Marinas are a different animal. Some states have allowed gas stations and marinas to sell non-ethanol blended fuel, other states have not. New Jersey is one of the backward states that does not allow it. Basically you have to ask the seller what he is selling. The EPA mandate was flawed when the law was made in that it assumed that gas consumption would continue to increase over the years. So that mandated that the total amount of ethanol put into our gas supply had to increase also. The problem is that the Nations cars and trucks got more fuel efficient and the consumption actually went down. But the law says they have to add more and more ethanol each year and there's less and less gas to blend it with, so the amount of ethanol in the fuel keeps increasing. Clearly the law needs to be changed but we're talking about the EPA and all their bull$hit and they never admit they make a mistake so don't hold your breath. What really needs to be done is remove the ethanol completely. It's not needed, it does nothing to improve the atmosphere, it shortens engine life, it causes higher food prices because there's less land to grow food for human consumption, and the cost of converting the corn into ethanol uses more energy than it saves... plus it actually increases the cost of the gas. (When you buy straight gas without any ethanol in it and you pay more it's because you are being ripped off by the gas companies because they know you'll pay more for the "special" gas)... but it actually costs less to make than the blended variety. Gotta love those great laws that are designed to "protect" us...

As long as the marina that you use has a source available, I'd expect them to keep selling e-free... the problem is the environmentalists are lobbying congress to get rid of all e-free fuel and increase ethanol content in current fuel stock. As far as your marina goes - it may simply be a case of they close their pumps because of no access to low ethanol fuel, or they start just supplying what is available... no matter the ethanol content.

This situation is what we are trying to prevent. Make sure your district representative is made aware that "going greener" isn't always a blanket "better" and advise them of the dangers associated.
