It's a NYS listing of average propane prices by region.
I have a place upstate that uses propane. Amazing the difference in prices. I was using a local guy and paid a fair rate. He was bought out by a big national company - Amerigas. They kept increasing prices. Eventually, I was being billed about 4x the "average" price shown on the list. When I questioned them about it, the gas company became nasty.
I changed to a local supplier and have since been paying less than the average cost listed on the NYS site.
I think many of the big companies employ a similar approach and charge well above market price... driving up the averages and hoping the unsuspecting customer doesn't notice (or shop around).
$3.02 seems close to the current average price, but I would still shop around.
