Gas Prices Make Slight Decline
(IRN) -- Gasoline prices are down slightly over the last month.

The statewide average for July is $3.87, down from $3.96 in June, a nine-cent drop, according to the monthly survey by the AAA Chicago Motor Club.

Spokesman Nick Jarmusz says it's a slow decline, attributable to the fact that some refinery problems that constricted supply in the4 Midwest have been cleared up.

The big thing is the price is still higher than last year at this time by $1.05. That's due to the rising price of crude oil, and the falling value of the dollar.
