Governor Gavin Newsom proposed a plan requiring oil refiners to maintain minimum reserves of gasoline in an effort to prevent price spikes.

The plan comes three months after the U.S. Department of Energy sold its 1 million barrel Northeast gasoline reserve, which Washington created after Superstorm Sandy .

Industry has criticized Newsom 's plan as attacking producers.
