Rising diesel prices are affecting businesses that rely on fuel to operate. A 3000 gallon tank is a crucial asset for one company, which has a fleet of 30 big trucks that run on diesel. The company's general manager notes that the price of diesel fuel is beyond his control.

According to AAA, the statewide average diesel price was $5.70 per gallon, a significant increase from the previous year. This surge in fuel costs is likely to have a broad impact, as diesel is a widely used fuel.

Further details on the effects of rising diesel prices are available from the source, including comments from the general manager of the affected company.
