The gas station at the corner of Pine Street and Highway 20 in Sisters will soon be back in operation under a lease from Space Age Fuels, Inc. of Gresham.

The 14-year-old company purchased the station from Bank of the Cascades, closing December 23. General Manager Jim Pliska said the station should be up and operating under the independent Space Age brand in about two weeks.

According to Pliska, the company plans only minor remodeling of the convenience store at the station.

"We're working as fast as we can," Pliska said. "We want to get it open as quickly as possible."

The Sisters station is one of 16 operated by Space Age Fuels in Oregon and Washington.
