a few items to note

by admin

Here are a couple of items various readers may be interested in:

  • Wisconsin has had a working group trying to find common ground in implementing the Great Lakes Compact.  That group has gone bust.
  • James Rowen, who blogs from Milwaukee, has an opinion piece in Madison raising attention on a potential expansion of an oil refinery just across the harbor from Duluth. 
  • Maria Energia has a Q & A with Al Franken in his bid for Senate.  This is in no way an endorsement, just an FYI.

    Thanks for posting the Madison Capital Times piece. I erred in writing the Murphy refinery capacity in gallons, not barrels. Sorry about that. The capacity is 35,000 barrels a day; the expanded capacity would be 235,000 barrels a day.
