PETROLEUM PRICING
 



Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, August 31, 2008 — The Island Regulatory and Appeals Commission announced today the following petroleum pricing decisions, effective September 1, 2008:

  • There will be no change in gasoline, furnace oil, stove oil or diesel prices at this time; and
  • Propane prices will decrease by 4.7 cents per litre (cpl) for Irving Oil Marketing Limited and will decrease by 4.6 cpl for Superior Propane.

The Commission advises that while its next scheduled price adjustment will be on September 15, 2008, the development of tropical storms and hurricanes frequently observed during the month of September can have a significant and immediate impact on petroleum markets and could result in unscheduled price adjustments.
