National Grid Releases Report On Long-Term Natural Gas Capacity, Announces Community Meetings

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) - National Grid has issued its report on long-term natural gas capacity, as per its agreement with New York state.

That agreement was reached in November following CBS2's reporting.

For months we demanded answers from National Grid after new and existing customers were refused service because of a gas moratorium.

In its report, the company says it is at risk of running out of gas needed to meet customers' demands during winter months.

National Grid will hold a series of meetings next month to get the public's input.
