Before reading post, read first comment below. Here is a link to the plants being discussed.

Also, this is of interest: North Dakota regulators seem to be fast-tracking permits (at least by federal standards, things are moving along nicely).

ONEOK to build a 62-mile liquid natural gas (LNG) pipeline through McKenzie County: to connect the Garden Creek natural gas plant being built northeast of Watford City, ND, with a facility near Sidney, Montana.

The facility near Watford City, scheduled to come on-line by the end of 2011, will have the capacity to process 100 million cubic feet of natural gas per day.

“We anticipate that there will be 400 temporary jobs that will be associated with the construction of the pipeline,” stated a company spokesperson. “We are estimating that we will have 250 temporary workers hired in the next two to three weeks. The pipeline project will ramp up quickly with the majority of the workers gone by November.”
