    ExxonMobil gives up on Highway 12 megaload route!

    How sweet it is!

    After months of fighting with environmental groups, ExxonMobil is giving up on plans to ship "megaloads" of oil field equipment across Lolo Pass, opting instead to ship all of the equipment on Interstate highways.

    Monday's decision by ExxonMobil and Imperial marks a major development in the on-going fight over how the companies will get gear to the Tar Sands oil fields in Alberta.

    Congratulations to All Against the Haul, Fighting Goliath, David James Duncan, Rick Bass and the countless others who did the heavy lifting in the fight against ExxonMobile and their Highway 12 megaload plan.
