Michelle Wright: A national survey reveals gas prices are down 1.5 cents this week to a nationwide average of 2.93 for a gallon of self-serve regular. Federal investigators 1 say they've found 15 examples of gasoline price gouging 2 following last year's hurricane season, reports CNN's Dick Uliano.

Dick Uliano: The findings may seem contrary, but the FTC reports that after last year's hurricanes, 15 gasoline refiners' price gouged 3 by Congress's definition. But the FTC's Phil Broyles says it was really shortages and market forces that drove up prices.
