The Public Services Regulatory Authority (ARESEP) has approved a reduction in gasoline prices solicited by the National Oil Refinery (RECOPE), according to a statement released by ARESEP Friday.

The price of one liter of regular gasoline will drop from ¢520 ($1) to ¢ 501 ($0.97), while the price of one liter of super gas will drop from ¢548 ($1.06) to ¢528 ($1.02).

These adjustments reflect international gas price fluctuations, the statement said.

These new gas prices will go into effect as soon as they are published in the official government daily La Gaceta ; they were sent to the National Printer Friday, the statement said.
