[Updated] The CNRL Horizon Project
February 11th, 2005 — DanTammy has corrected me on my terminology:
Love, its actually bitumen trapped in sand, its not quite at the oil stage at that point. It is very exciting now that we have corporate approval…its full steam ahead….you may want to start packing for the move 
At least I didn’t say “tar sands”!

Tammy’s company (CNRL) just recieved approval for the multi-billion dollar oil sands (don’t you dare call it tar sands!) project that she currently a regulatory co-ordinator for.
If you don’t know any thing about oils sands basicly there is oil trapped in sand underground rather than in a convential resevior i.e. an oil well with a pump jack. You end up digging a giant hole in the ground to recover the oil so we can sell it to Americans at a profit.
