      • “Allen County is one of the easier places to work/do work.  One of the counties we do work in kept us from operating for 100 days, though we were fully ready, just because our permit was restricted and we couldn’t make the right connection to get it passed.  That was after the hurdle of having a road built to the facility. Nothing like that here.”
