The EPA. Diesel gas used to have a much higher sulfur content. Beginning this summer, the EPA mandated low sulfur diesel. Reducing the sulfur content adds to the production costs, but significantly reduces particulate output of sulfur dioxide.
On a side note, I noticed today that diesel is again cheaper then regular gas.
