I can’t say that I like a lot of government involvement and additional regulations, but I appreciate that they are trying to stop the issue. It’s far too easy for folks to install skimmers and while this doesn’t solve the issue or counter skimmer overlays, it does take a step to help. Locally here in Florida, I have seen attendants at more than one Speedway station checking the pumps daily and putting on tamper seals. I have told them I appreciated the effort.
