Air Pollution from Power Generation

• NHEJN's Goal: To limit the air pollution in New Haven by preventing an increase in power generation (whether via the opening of new facilities or the expansion of existing ones) and by encouraging facilities to stop using #6 fuel oil.
  
• Progress: Yale-New Haven Hospital has agreed to stop using #6 fuel oil. NHEJN has asked St. Raphael's Hospital as well as Simkins to stop using #6 fuel oil.
