Update on The "Megaloads"

The Billings Gazette is reporting.

Remember all those stories about the "megaloads" and the activist environmentalists involvement in slowing down the movement? Well, the project is pretty much completed: the Kearl Lake Oil Sands project, operated by Imperial Oil/ExxonMobil, in north Alberta, is slated to go into production sometime this week.
 
I admire Imperial Oil for putting up with all the nonsense and not giving in.

At the time, it was such a big story, the story got its own "tag" at the bottom of the MDW.

A big "thank you" to Don for sending me the story. I had not checked in on the project for several months now.

The "megaload" story, by the way, was filed under Don Quixote in my non-electronic filing system. Turns out that the story was filed in the correct location; it can now be filed in the circular file.
