Both sides asked a judge Monday to rule in their favor without trial in a fight over a proposal to build a multi-billion-dollar terminal in southern Maryland to export liquefied natural gas.
Calvert County Circuit Judge James P. Salmon listened to arguments for about an hour, but did not give much indication as to how he might rule. Salmon said he had only spent a few hours recently reading the agreement for the first time and said he would issue an opinion as soon as possible.
Dominion Resources has proposed spending up to $3 billion to upgrade the terminal to export increasing amounts of natural gas being produced by new hydraulic fracturing techniques.

We need no more OPEC oil, we're done with any Venezuelan oil because we have our own resources! That's why we're breaking into the most difficult to mine and last few drops of petroleum fuels left under out land to sell to other countries???????????. Yeah, we can sell that.....

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah.
Oil reserves in this country and outside this country will last for many generations to come.
