I KEEP HOPING THIS IS A MASSIVE BLUFFIt makes no sense to build this magnificant facility in Holbrooke basin and then just pull it apart and truck it to New Mexico toan unproven helium province before a single molecule of helium is produced in Arizona.
Maybe they are having Arizona oficials visit the plant to try to show them what they have built and pressure them for all the work-over permits they need to get some helium flowing. Maybe they are having some local semiconductor leaders visit at the same time to emphasize how important it is not to put up unnecessary barriers.
They can claim a credible plan B whereas without New Mexico acres there really was no plan B so no urgency for the state to let them quickly work over the wells or do whatever else they need to do to move forward and utilize the faciltiy they have put in place. In the proper place. .
