CAC Tries to Block Amtrak from Using Clean NatGas in Philly

Amtrak has a project underway to renovate and update its 30th Street Station in Philadelphia, PA. Amtrak cut a deal with Philadelphia Gas Works (PGW), the largest municipal-owned natural gas utility in the country, to switch and use onsite gas boilers at the renovated station for some (not all) of the heat. Anti-fossil fuel fanatics are predictably having a cow over the plan. The Philly-based Clean Air Council (CAC), funded with money from Big Green groups, is gearing up to fight the use of natural gas boilers.
