TOWN OF BURLINGTON – An empty XNG truck en route south from the company’s Little Falls plant went off Route 205 about two miles south of Route 80 at 8:20 a.m. today, according to county Emergency Services Director Art Klinger.

"There was no release of gas at any time," XNG Vice President Matt Smith emphasized in an email received a few moments ago.
