From the website:
The annual transition to “summer blend” gasoline required by EPA has begun and this warm-weather gasoline is more expensive to produce. The switchover also requires temporary production reductions at refineries.

Going to a single octane gas and getting away from this multi-grade nonsense would help considerably.

The three grades of unleaded gasoline aren't the problem. I have heard that there is over 30 different "blends" of gasoline to comply with regional EPA requirements.
