Phase 3 Controls On Oil Products
Washington reports the Cost of Living Council reimposed price controls on most of the U S oil industry to curb heating costs and inflation. The rule sets a 15 percent ceiling on average price increases for the 23 largest refiners on key products including gasoline and home heating oil, excluding natural gas and some items. The move follows winter shortages and aims to preserve supplies while allowing limited, justified increases within the 1.5 percent threshold, with Dunlop emphasizing flexibility to prevent broader inflationary effects.
