| Winter Break at L&C: Quiet Campus, Busy Facilities Crew |
While much of campus enjoys a well-earned winter pause, the Facilities team has been anything but idle.

NW Natural seeks to shift cost of failed RNG investment to customers
“At the end of the day, the amount of RNG delivered to customers in Oregon from Oregon facilities is zero, right?” Green Energy Institute at Lewis and Clark Law School director and staff attorney Carra Sahler said. The RNG the company has obtained comes from other states. “And Northwest Natural is just absolutely doubling down on this message that it is delivering renewable energy when it’s not.”
