Propane-Powered School Buses Approved

{Charleston, West Virginia}...Thursday, the state Board of Education voted to change its policy to allow school administrators in West Virginia to have the option of transporting students with propane-powered school buses. More than two dozen other states have adopted propane as an alternative fuel source. State Schools Superintendent Jorea Marple says switching to propane could save an average $3,100 per bus in fuel costs annually.
