Oak Ridge Utility District has installed a compressed natural gas fueling station behind its office on South Jefferson Circle to power a growing fleet of vehicles that can run on natural gas or conventional fuel.
ORUD already has a Ford Fusion car and an F-150 truck that can use either fuel, and a second truck will be converted this week, General Manager Ben Andrews said.
