UNITY - Inquiring minds want to know. We were approached with some questions as to what was taking place at the North West Terminal as residents were seeing heavy equipment and mounds of dirt.

The Press-Herald talked to North West Terminal Board Chairman Brad Sperle, and was given some answers to these curious inquiries.

Trackhoes and seeing dirt moved is part of the current process undertaken by Sask Energy who are currently moving gas lines that run north toward Cut Knife. This project will move these lines across the track at 90 degrees rather then on an angle, as well as move them closer together. This work will assist the NWT if they want to extend their existing track in the future.

North of the NWT, dirt is being taken off a hill and will be used to build a road over a slough to allow for better access to the land to the north of the terminal. At present, Sperle says, there is no good access to this property, which could be used for the future.

As for the track expansion project, Sperle tells the Press-Herald that this work was put on hold when the federal election took place as some of the funding will be coming from the feds. He predicts that within a month or two of the election settling, this project will once again be on the front burner.

As Paul Harvey says, “now you know the rest of the story.”
