Data points

• proposal: a $26 million proppant distribution facility, near Gladstone
• confusion as to which government bodies will get involved
• Houston-based CARBO Ceramics North American 
• will be their largest distribution facility

Well, the biggest "government body" for this proposal to go through is the Stark County Commission, I suppose.

Good luck. 

Again, this is the largest -- the largest -- distribution facility for this Houston-based company; anyone still doubt the significance of the Bakken?

I personally think this is about the least desirable place in the state to put the distribution facility. The center of activity will be farther north. Somewhere between Alexander and Watford City seems to be a better location, and the folks there support growth, based on published reports. If the distribution centers needs rail access, then west of Williston would have been better.
