by Robert Pore (Kearney Hub) … Aurora Cooperative is opening its new A-Stop 24 pump site just north of Grant on Highway 61. Friday’s ceremony was attended by Gov. Pete Ricketts, area chamber members and Nebraska corn and ethanol board representatives.

The A-Stop 24 will provide E10, E15, E30 and E85 blends, as well as diesel, around the clock.

In a similar development, beginning July 24, flex fuel vehicle drivers will have the option of purchasing E85 at Cooperative Producers Inc. in Giltner (23 Railroad St.) from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Consumers will be limited to 30 gallons, and no containers are allowed.

Complimentary hot dogs and soft drinks will be available to customers throughout the promotion.
