The station, located at 3013 20th Street East, was designed, built, and
will be operated and maintained by Clean Energy. The station consists of
two liquefied natural gas (LNG)
fast-fill pumps, and is open to the public 24/7.
Interstate Distributor Co., headquartered in nearby Tacoma, will use the
station for its fleet of LNG tractors operating throughout the Pacific
Northwest.
"As the first national freight carrier in the Pacific Northwest to use
natural gas vehicles for our fleet, we're very happy to see another
station become available that can support our regional distribution
network," said Interstate Distributor Co. CEO Marc Rogers. "We made the
transition to natural gas early so we would be ahead of the game, and
now that the infrastructure is here, we're more and more confident each
day that we made the right decision."
Clean Energy also announced last month that it had completed a public
natural gas station in Central
Point, Oregon, linking California to Washington.
"We continue to focus on key transportation corridors like the I-5 to
expand our natural gas infrastructure," said Chad Lindholm, vice
president of Sales at Clean Energy. "As our partners like Interstate
make the transition to natural gas, we can offer the fueling stations
they need to expand along with them."
