"its the workers and offices that will be there all summer stamping approvals and permits, having meetings and coordinating suppliers and training. The people are being hired to do the job for the politicians daily."

But nothing gets announced until the honchos are there to take the limelight.

"The ROF has already been approved to be approved."

So...what's the holdup on the sp then? If this is the case then why hasn't K's sp hike taken place? Approved to be approved is still a bird in the bush. Some money requires signatures on the dotted line and doesn't move until then. It still boils down to it not moving until concerned parties are ready for it to move. Vested parties all have a time when it suits their purpose.....when perfect storm is attainable. The SP spike is not necessarily the end that all parties are looking for either. Therein lies one potential variable in the outcome.
