Most people don’t realize that nearly half of TAPS is buried. 380 miles below ground and 420 above.
They only know of TAPS from the pictures and not many take pictures of the underground portion. ;-)
Hear you loud and clear! Fought long and hard this last winter to be allow Shell to be able to drill OCS here (BOERME hearings) in the Chukchi And Beaufort Seas. Maybe Alaska will win the battle against the anti drill crowd short of $200 a barrel oil? We keep trying to develop, the greens would rather have us dead, than to develop.
