DOE Diesel and Gasoline

The diesel fuel prices that are released are used by the trucking industry to make rate adjustments in hauling contracts. Gasoline prices are frequently quoted by the media, particularly during times of rising or falling prices, because of the general interest to the public. The gasoline prices have been used in analyses of the cost of the Environmental Protection Agency regulations requiring oxygenated and reformulated gasoline in specified non-attainment areas. The prices have also been used by the state of California in helping to understand the high level of prices associated with their distinct market. Most importantly, they have provided national and state level legislators valuable independent, accurate and timely information during times of volatile markets and prevented the creation of unnecessary legislation in a free market system.

Data Supplied: US East Coast (New England, Central Atlantic, Lower Atlantic), Midwest, Gulf Coast, Rocky Mountain, West Coast and California weekly retail on- highway diesel prices.
