I hated working under Cajun because they take safety to a level where it dramatically slows production down. For example, their safety guy at the Port of Lake Charles told us no music one day when our portable speaker was barely above speaking level. Another day he told us to take our Sawzall blade and battery out when we weren’t using it. Every single time. Those safety guys look for anything to frick up your day, and then the higher ups wonder why the job takes forever to complete.

unfortunately the same situation in the plant i work for. the safety guys are running off all of our best contractors. we've gone from making chemicals to making safety. i keep saying that these guys wouldnt know how to respond to a real emergency.

Whoever can get their hands on a pile driver.

Those launch pads are concrete and something will have to support them from sinking into the marsh.

Space X will have a concrete plant(s) on site. Sand, aggregate and cement will most likely barged in. The pits out on Greenwell Springs Rd. along the Amite river may want to make a bid.

That narrow two lane road down there will have to be widened. (La.35 out of Rayne)

The facility buildings will be similar to what you would see out in the Permian Basin. Steel buildings on a slab.

The caterers could make bank if they play it correctly.

I’m wondering if it would be cheaper to truck raw materials and heavy equipment to fourchon or grand isle and then move them via barge or supply boat west on the gulf to the star base port.

Good gawd…this is overkill. Yall need to chill out a bit.

Nobody rents dumps neg. The majority of the dumps will be Cubans from florida. Our punitive legal environment in La has driven most insurers of dumps and tow trucks out of the state or jacked up rates to confiscatory levels.

He has become insufferable.

The amount of piles which need to be driven is astronomical.

Anyone that has land around proximal to the location in VP, with nothing on it, needs to concrete it and put in RV hookups.
You about to make bank....

Do you actually think that they haven’t seen the present infrastructure? It’s the key to the whole thing. Space X doesn’t let stuff like that slide.
