Massachusetts Bulk Fuel Discount
Since the winter of 1991, Massachusetts has had a statewide "Margin Over Rack" (MOR) program which pays oil dealers the lesser of either a set margin, currently 30 cents per gallon, or their regular retail price on the date of delivery. The Margin Over Rack concept is based on the fact that oil vendors base their per gallon retail price on a margin added to their terminal or "rack" price. Each vendor's margin is different due to variances in operating costs associated with delivery of the product. The MOR program allows all oil vendors to participate.
