Workers with A.M.E. Contracting, who work for Carolina Cat Construction, are currently replacing a muffler on a generator near city hall on West Academy Street. A worker at the site confirmed that the companies plan to install a newer, more carbon-neutral exhaust system. This work is part of a larger plan to upgrade generators at other locations throughout North Carolina. The generator is a part of the ElectriCites load-shedding program.
