 SENATOR KELLY announced  HB 330  (FUEL STATE AUTO FLEET WITH NATURAL     L    
 GAS) to be up for consideration.                                              
                                                                               
 REPRESENTATIVE JOE GREEN, Sponsor, said this bill would go a long             
 way toward correcting air pollution in cities by burning a clean              
 burning fuel to reduce the C O content in the air.  This would be             
 step 1 in the effective use of natural gas or alternate fuel.  In             
 addition to more mileage, the wear on engines is greatly reduced.             
 He said conversions are available.  The problem now is that we                
 don't have the tankage or the refueling facilities.                           
                                                                               
 SENATOR SHARP moved to pass CS for HB 330 (TRA) from committee with           
 individual recommendations.  There were no objections and it was so           
 ordered.
