The Bakken Economy: Menards Mega Store Dickinson To Open Next Week; New Rail Facility Proposed For Beach, North Dakota

The Dickinson Press is reporting: Menards.
Dickinson’s new Menards will open Tuesday, the company announced Wednesday.
The “mega store” is in Roers’ West Ridge development off Interstate 94 Exit 59.
The Bismarck Tribune is reporting:  another Bakken freight terminal / CBR; this one west of Beach, North Dakota.
Beach residents were up bright and early Tuesday to hear a development company’s plans for an oil loading railport just west of town.
Public safety after the explosive fireball of a Bakken oil train derailment near Casselton last month was high on the list of concerns at the breakfast-hour meeting of the town’s zoning board. So were noise, lights and possible vapor pollution from a major oil facility and railroad site within a half-mile of town.
The Utah-based company is familiar in town for residential and industrial projects north of Interstate-94 and formed Beach Railport LLC to turn 275 crop acres west of town into a rail-supported industrial zone.
