In the DFW area where we are experiencing shortages at gas stations right now,  we were allowed to use commercial fueling stations even if they were selling over $3/gal to maintain operational readiness. If that was no longer an option, the brass would bring in tankers from Memphis to fuel our trucks. This "shortage" was nothing more than a hyperbolic hysteria fueled by social media as the real shortage was the number of fuel tank drivers available in the state to deliver fuel. Most tank drivers were stuck/evacuated in Harvey affected areas. Also, those tank drivers available and onroad still had to uphere the 14hr DOT rules too--the true Catch-22!!</blockquote>
