Notable Quotes (2)
We are keeping a very close eye on fuel costs... there's a lot of petroleum products in the bituminous pavement that we use to pave with.
Once we remove the pavement and begin constructing that storm sewer, there is a petroleum pipeline owner that occupies that rightway. And it turns out that we were too close to their pipeline.
