The Department of Licensing and Consumer Affairs (DLCA) is notifying the public of the latest rack rate prices issued by Gulf Oil at Lime Tree Bay Terminal effective June 29 – July 5, 2020. Rack rate prices have steadily increased since April 27 when unleaded, premium and diesel were $0.93/gallon, $0.99/gallon and $1.08/gallon respectively.  Today, the rack prices, with the .14/gallon tax, are $1.6100 for regular, $1.6900 for premium and $1.54 for diesel. 

Additionally, DLCA conducted its territory-wide fuel price survey on Monday.  “Use the DLCA fuel survey data to make wise informed decisions,” said DLCA Commissioner Richard T. Evangelista.  “Consumers should purchase fuel from the lowest priced retailers to encourage greater competition amongst the retailers.”  Fuel surveys are included for comparative viewing and transparency.
