U.S. now has strategic gasoline reserves

Learning from the lessons of the severe gasoline shortages in the East Coast following Hurricane Sandy, the U.S. Dept of Energy now has a 500,000 barrel gasoline reserve (not to be confused with the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve) in New York and New England to keep those emergency vehicles running. Not a bad thing =) http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2014-05-03/the-u-dot-s-dot-now-has-a-strategic-gasoline-reserve-dot-its-about-time
