The Public Services Regulatory Authority (ARESEP) approved a ₡15 hike in regular per-kilometer taxi fares and a ₡2 to ₡3 increase in per-liter fuel prices.
Higher fuel prices approved last Friday haven't even gone into effect yet, but that hasn't stopped the National Oil Refinery (RECOPE) from seeking a new hike of ₡9 in the per-liter prices of gasoline and diesel.
The Public Services Regulatory Authority found that the state-owned oil refinery improperly used public funds to pay for expenses like airline tickets and professional services at the refinery expansion project in Limón.
