The EIA website states that, “EIA is closed due to a lapse in appropriations. EIA will not update its website until the agency reopens”.

In an official notice released by the SDDC yesterday, the SDDC will maintain the October 7th week’s national average diesel fuel price of $3.897 per gallon, until the Department of Energy reopens. ### Would you like to share your thoughts?
