Vegetable Oil To Cut Down Dust; Ethane Pipeline to Canada

June 26, 2012:

A reader comments today:
Hilton Gardens should be nice. Value Place? Williston already has 2 and 2 more are going in at the Sand Creek Town Center (along with the 160 room Radisson). Williston is also getting the 240 room Country Inn & Suites and a 100-room Staybrdige Suites (according to their site) http://marshotelmanagement.com/coming-soon/

Oil companies giving back millions to North Dakota
In Dickinson:
Marathon: lead contributor to Housing Incentive Fund, $2.5 million contribution; $1 million to St Joseph's Hospital and Health Center
In Williston:
Halliburton: second $25,000 check last week to Mercy Medical Center
Target Logistics: several donations, including $17,000 to the Williston Police Department toward its first K-9 unit, $5,000 to Olympic swimming hopeful Carissa Gormally and a $2,500 scholarship for the Miss North Dakota pageant.

Target Logistics donation of $55,000 to the Williams County Sheriff’s Office to purchase cameras for squad cars is on hold by county commissioners citing conflict of interest.
Other:
Hess: $25 million support education
Unidentified: $4 million toward Minot flood recovery; $4 - $5 million for North Dakota Heritage Center (I believe CLR is a big contributor to that center)

North Dakota approves pipeline to carry ethane to Alberta. 430 mile pipeline from Tioga's Hess natural gas processing plant to Empress, Alberta; 80-mile leg in North Dakota. No doubt US State Dept approval is needed/forthcoming. According to a comment back in January, 2012, US State Department approval is necessary.
