As I understand it, CCP's Gillette facility is "just over the hill" from the Bakken oil shale formation area across the N.D. border. This area, according to the national news reports, is the largest oil boom of light, sweet on the north american continent. It is an economic boom and energy harvesting bonanza.
This tells me that if it is true and petroleum is being sucked out of the earth in great abundance as has been implied, there should be vast areas of spill ripe for the cleanup industry. That means GRNO should be hiring and functioning in their business model focus, unless each and every company that's harvesting oil in that area has their own cleanup crews. When GRNO bought out the Oklahoma Crude South concern, I was under the impression they would be moving all of the equipment to the Gillette site in anticipation of this Bakken boom. In May, GRNO came out with a P.R. implying they were "acquiring" or had "acquired" new specialized equipment to allow their cleaning equipment to be mobilized.
In their Aug. audio interview conversation, the execs. said the equipment ordered from European sources was packaged and ready to be shipped. It's been three months since then and six months since the first related P.R. yet, nothing has been said regarding the current status of that equipment or that of the productivity of the CCP Gillette facility and it should be 24/7, if it's in active operation. Looking through this list, I am not finding one CCP related job.
