OIL PIPELINE BURST IN MARSHALL MICHIGAN

An oil pipeline burst in Marshall, Michigan causing more than a million gallons of oil to spill into the Talmadge Creek and the Kalamazoo River. Marshall is located in southern Michigan, east of Battle Creek and west of Albion. The spill occurred in July and has traveled down-river reaching the village of Augusta, which is roughly halfway between Battle Creek and Kalamazoo, a distance of possibly 25 or 30 miles. Enbridge, Inc. (U.S. operations—headquartered in Houston, Texas) is the responsible oil pipeline company. Enbridge's goal is to keep the oil from reaching the dam at Morrow Lake, which is a few miles west of Augusta. Enbridge has committed a lot of resources and many people to clean up the oil spill. As with the gulf oil spill, many animals and birds have come in contact with the oil threatening their existence. Although winter will soon arrive bringing with it cold temperatures and snow, Enbridge will continue working throughout the winter with limited operations, but will return in the Spring to finish the clean up.

At this time, Enbridge is hiring people classified as “Labor Technicians,” to help in the cleanup process. My understanding (based on information provided by my contacts who work for the county of Calhoun) is that the pay for those involved in the cleanup is good, and they are treated very well.

I thought of you when I acquired this information. If your job is ending or you are not working, or if you would like to enter into a new career that has a lot of opportunities, this may be a break for you and could be an exciting opportunity.

If you acquire the required training and are hired, many doors could be open to you in the future. I am told that when Enbridge is done cleaning up this oil spill in Marshall, Michigan, they will move to other troubled sites and qualified employees may go with them.

With the proper training, those who are certified will be in the market for and desired by other oil companies, oil pipeline companies and the like. This could be a great opportunity for someone wanting to be needed for their training/knowledge/experience.

I have been informed that Michigan Works is offering HAZWOPER training.

If you could get into this training ASAP and complete it, you could pick up an application at:

If you meet the requirements that I mentioned above, you may be hired on the spot and begin working immediately.

I may submit this to my blog, but to you first.

If this works for you, I hope I have helped you.

STATE TROOPER POUNCES ON SPEEDING COP

Was this female trooper suffering a bad case of PMS or was she simply doing the job she is supposed to do? Everyone knows that cops often look the other way when their colleagues break the law, but no one is above the law and this cop found that out the hard way! He tried using his public position and status to his selfish advantage and now will most likely be embarrassed for a long time.  Maybe being reduced to the status of a mere mortal human being will bring his feet back down to earth.
