PER CURIAM.

Defendants Premier Express, Inc. and Jerry Lipps appeal from the trial court's judgment granting the State's request for injunctive relief and also ordering the defendants to pay a civil penalty for their violations of the Missouri Underground and Petroleum Storage Act, Chapter 319 RSMo, and its implementing regulations, at a gasoline station and truck stop in Jackson, Cape Girardeau County, Missouri.

We have reviewed the parties' briefs and the record on appeal. No error of law appears. An extended opinion reciting the detailed facts and restating the principles of law would have no precedential value. The judgment is affirmed. Rule 84.16(b)(5).
