The northern part of the pipeline is the problem MORELUCK, it is planned to be sunk in a aquafer that supplies drinking water to 7 states. PIPES leak, PIPES RUST, PIPES BURST and if its in the aquafer and something happens, the water will be contaminated to 7 states.
Now I realize this isnt something you hear on FOX, or read in Weasel zipper, or hear on Limbaughs show, or listen to when dennis miller speaks, but ITS A REALITY. Until they can figure out how to get around the aquafer, the northern part isnt going to be built.
Pretty simple stuff. Unless you can tell the company how you can prevent rust or decay on submerged pipes, then I guess you should leave the problem solving to the experts.
