Pressure mounts on National Grid for alternatives to moratorium

Gov. Andrew Cuomo has threatened to start a legal process to revoke the utility's license — a negotiating tactic he’s used before, with some results — and Attorney General Tish James is gathering customer complaints in an ongoing investigation. A standoff over a controversial pipeline that Grid says is needed to meet demand continues, but the utility is expected to propose alternatives next week and offer a public defense of its actions.
