Update on Kentucky CNG Fleet Vehicle Initiative (10.12.12) - We are encouraged by what’s happening in regards to the bids that came in for the CNG initiative. OK and CO have made great strides in this area. For Kentucky, we continue to look at initiatives at the state level to stimulate demand for alternative fueled vehicles. Right now Kentucky’s CNG vehicle purchase level is relatively small, which translates into a fairly small need for CNG fuel purchases. As CNG vehicles are added to the state fleet or local government fleets, this will spur the need for more fueling stations.
