The only way the NWP viability issue can be resolved is is thru a real world test. That is why the Novato lawsuit was so ill-conceived and counterproductive.
The NWP partisians however have to accept that the freight service cannot remain on taxpayer-subsidized intensive care indefinitely. A real timeline with unforgiving benchmarks needs to be established. A firm cut-off date is what the Novato faction should have demanded from the entrenched political machine that is pushing both NCRA-NWP and SMART.
I still contend that SMART quietly figures that the NWP won't be an impediment for very long.
