Battle of the heavyweights: Eversource, MIT fight over paths of proposed new underground conduits

Cambridge Day reports MIT is fighting Eversource over underground power cables the utility wants to install beneath MIT as part of its plans for a new Binney Street substation. In filings with the state, MIT goes so far as to say the work could kill the school, because it could disrupt the arteries that radiate out from the school's "heart" - a central utility plant that feeds vital electricity, steam and water across the campus.
