Waste-disposal company Republic Services Inc. (RSG) on Thursday
said it would add 156 compressed natural gas-powered vehicles to
its fleet by the end of this year.
With the added vehicles, the company will be operating over
3,100 vehicles running on alternative fuels, it said.
The 156 new solid waste collection trucks will replace older,
diesel-powered vehicles.
Republic said its CNG fleet saves roughly 26 million gallons of
diesel fuel annually.
