Management at Irving Oil can’t help but smile today after the word that came down from Ottawa late last week. The federal government has given its blessing to the companies proposed plans to build a new office headquarters on Long Wharf. Spokes-person Leslie McLeod tells CHSJ News, there is still no word on what the final price-tag of the proposal is or how many people might be going to work.
Early estimates indicate the building could cost close to $30 million. Still with Irving Oil, maintenance crews continue to work on the “G” tank at the refinery. No indication yet as to what was causing oil to pool on the top of the tank. It has been emptied and now word on how long the work will continue.
