Under the omnibus bill, 15% of snow must be made from corn.
That’s hilarious.
“But site manager Steve Horne says it has at least 50 years more, until global warming reduces the need for road salt...”
So global warming will eliminate all snow in the American Midwest in 50 years?
Anyone this stupid should not be managing anything.
I met Whitney Macmillon, the last family member to run the company. Traditional American mid-westerner to his core, even though he was super-rich.
Those values are why they company has survived so long.
Absolutely no one seems to question global warming any longer.
The propaganda has even worked into the long-term business plans of companies large and small.
Salty Dog!
We took the kids to a tour at a salt mine in Hutchison Kansas some years ago. It was well worth the time and money.
They have a salt mine in Detroit too.
Well....either that, or not.
Given its depth under the lake, I doubt there would be any effect, given how thick the rock layer is overhead and the fact that they seem to be excavating only about a 20ft layer. Also, If abandoned, it would fill with water from the leaks under great pressure.
And then 25% of the snow must be given for free to opera singers and stand-up comics.
I worked on a mine reclamation project in ND many years ago. What was happening is large craters were forming above the mines below. Some craters caused main roads to sink. The mines were very large rooms where coal was removed with the ceilings supported by columns of coal left in tact. Over the decades these support columns would deteriorate, causing the ceiling to fall, layer by layer. What worsened it was some mines were flooded which as a result caused underground streams of fresh water.
During the project large D8 dozers and caterpillar brand scrapers would fall through the surface into air pockets just below, creating yet another crater.
Those values are why they company has survived so long.
Yeah - the ccp comment above couldn't be further from the truth. Cargill quietly goes about their business. They are very benevolent as well. They're soooo big they don't have to pander as much because they aren't really a brand name.
Impressive!
Salt peter is potassium nitrate... used to be mined from bat guano in caves. It cane be made from manure and urine.
LOL! Do you think they’ll back fill it when the mine is spent!?
That is because the amount of information on the internet today is composed of 10% fact, 60% fiction and 31% pure bullshit.
The extra one percent is because it really stinks.
I read less, post less, believe nothing and after the election fraud, am really worried to see if America can last for 250 years.
Rome made 500 years, we will not even be close.
If anyone needs proof, look at Beirut, Cuba, Venezuela, any central American country, the norks and for a real disaster, the racists, bigoted slants in china.
Pawns of the collective, not even cogs in a wheel, zero freedom for the ability to eat raw dogs nuts and bat's blood for desert.
No thank you, I will not participate.
