Subj: CNG Pumps at Gasoline Stations Proposal

I have requested President Elect Obama to consider convening a meeting with the oil companies and natural gas utilities companies to hash out an agreement, whereby, the oil companies would install CNG pumps at their gasoline stations as they have done with diesel.

As you know, the reason that the big 3 automakers stopped producing CNG autos for consumers is because of a lack of CNG fueling sites for the public, although Honda and Toyota are displaying their CNG models at the 2008 Los Angeles Auto Show

I recommend that all of the affected State agencies, natural gas utilities, and private entities, such as, Clean Energy follow up with this proposal.

BP, Chevron, and Shell oil companies based, on their recent "green" advertisements, may be amenable to this idea.
