Exactly. It's a done deal. Like you said its just grandstanding at this point. They know its happening and they're just trying to appease the people that vote for them by speaking out against it.

I guess if they do file a lawsuit and it's allowed to actually go to court that could hold things up, but that seems like a long-shot.

Short of that, I can't fathom a scenario in which the state torpedoes a project that they want.

I think a long shot is being generous

They could be trying to extort some money. I'm not worried, the governor is on board.

I don't think they want money, they just don't want it to be built. And that's fine, they have a right to protest. I just don't think it leads anywhere and I'm not particularly concerned about it.
