The office says the average price for heating oil slipped 2 cents from a month ago to $1.87 per gallon. Kerosene prices have also gone down 1 cent to $2.41 and propane prices have fallen 2 cents to $2.15 per gallon.

The office says the lower prices reflect the fact that a price rally in crude oil markets that took place over the last several months has faltered.

The prices reflect an Aug. 22 survey.
