Week 52: December 24, 2017 -- December 30, 2017

In the draft version of the top stories for 2017, for the category, "North Dakota, energy" I suggested the successful opening of the DAPL. Now, today, the last edition of The WSJ for the year has this op-ed: "North Dakota's Pipeline Payoff":
The Dakota Access Pipeline marks six months of operations on New Year’s Day, and new data show that North Dakota is already enjoying major benefits from the $3.8 billion project.
The pipeline has significantly lowered energy transportation costs and energy companies to move their oil to the Gulf Coast, where it fetches a higher price. So it’s little surprise that energy production has surged since the Dakota Access Pipeline opened.
