Its not my opinion that this would be one more pipeline over that huge aquifer, out of many that have been built since the 50s. Its not my opinion that an oil spill would only cause local damage to the aquifer if it caused any at all, not perminant wide spread damage.

But your right that it is my opinion that the aquifer was just, or at least mostly, a pretext. There was opposition to the pipeline before the aquifer was raised as a serious issue, and there would be opposition to it if there was no aquifer there or if it was rerouted around the aquifer.

To have a pipeline crossing that region is just mind-boggling.”

That ship sailed back in the 50s.
