[quote=Anonymous]The main effect of this is to supercharge oil production in the Unita Basin. Oil from the Basin is high in paraffin content, which means it needs to be transported hot and can't be sent through a pipeline because it freezes at temps below 100 F. There are over 200 trucks per day which transport this stuff to the refineries in SLC; putting in a railroad will allow the oil companies to pump and transport significantly more oil. The other upshot is that environmental groups can't use the National Environmental Policy Act as an all-purpose trump card to stop development projects on public land. Reading Kavanaugh's opinion makes it sound like the court is tired of their antics on this issue. That could be huge down the road. [/quote]
