KeySpan, National Grid Merger One Step Closer




National Grid, a British utility, has agreed to give pay raises to its 3,210 unionized employees across upstate New York in return for union support of the company's contested merger with Brooklyn-based KeySpan Corp., reports the AP via Newsday.

As recently as two months ago, union officials had criticized the KeySpan deal in testimony to state regulators, according to this report.
