As of Wednesday, only four of the 85 witnesses in the contested case, that started Oct. 20, have been called.
Roughly 2 witnesses/week, so about 40 more weeks, which takes us to late August/early September 2017 (depending on holidays), leaving 6 months for the appeals to be concluded before the April 2018 groundbreaking.
The first contested case involved about a half-dozen parties and lasted seven days throughout two months. A written decision took more than a year later to reach.
Unless the State can't move that fast, which is probably what the "protectors" are counting on.
