Texas fleets overall are becoming leaders in NGV program efforts. UPS was awarded two natural gas stations in Texas (Houston and San Antonio) through SB 375 funding, and is coordinating with a partner for another station project in the Dallas area Houston-based WM announced it will convert 100% of its nationwide fleet to CNG (18,342 trucks).
