I think chances are around 1 percent but hackers have been targeting Gas Companies / Elec Grid / Utilities, etc. RUS/CHN/IRN/Norks grinding away at SCADA systems. |

“ National Grid’s plan to replace its main gas line on the Mid-Cape and Lower Cape is on the fast track, according to a company official who said Wednesday that the target date to wrap up the $50 million project has been moved up to mid-2019.
A moratorium on new hookups and expansions of existing service, in effect since October 2014, will then end, Ross Turrini, senior vice-president of gas engineering and process for National Grid, said.
“We’re looking to lift the moratorium April 1, 2019,” Turrini said during a meeting with the Cape Cod Times editorial board.
