I had a thought about the oil tax and the reasoning behind it. Who has to pay for the dismantling of the pipeline in the end, is it the state or the oil companies. If it's the oil companies they may want to keep oil coming down the line for as long as possible so why is the state paying them to keep it flowing and if it's the state I imagine that you can see the legislators already looking for a pot of money somewhere, PFD pot? Maybe it will just be left to rot away or maybe each area will have to dismantle it themselves? Good luck Valdez, it's going to be expensive. Imagine the remedial work, little spots of oil here and there.
