Coal Interests Oppose Virginia Gas Pipeline Plan
A Virginia coal interests group opposes Colonial-Natural-Gas-Co. plans to ship natural gas from Bristol to Roanoke via a pipeline to be fed by East Tennessee Natural Gas Co. Witness Harris Mitchell argued heating costs favor coal and questioned whether Colonial could sign 15,000 customers in four years. Blue chip plant prospects near Blacksburg and a ceramics plant at Virginia Tech were cited as potential gas users. Southwest Virginia has lost plants due to gas shortages. Westchester geese roundup prep nets planned to curb population as 2,000 birds occupy area lakes drawing complaints from residents.
