\"\"Bismarck \u00a0(NDDOT) \u2013 <\/em>It is never too early, or too often, to discuss driving habits with teens. Parents can start the conversation during National Teen Driver Safety Week, October 17-23, 2021.<\/p>\n

The North Dakota Department of Transportation encourages parents to talk to their teen drivers about the importance of always wearing a seat belt and taking personal responsibility while behind the wheel.<\/p>\n

Teen drivers age 14-19 were involved in 9.4% of fatal crashes in North Dakota in 2020. Inexperience, coupled with immaturity, often results in risk-taking behaviors such as speeding, alcohol\/drug use, driving distracted and not wearing a seat belt \u2013 all of which contribute to an increased death rate among teens. Seat belts are the single most effective safety device to prevent death and injury in a motor vehicle crash.<\/p>\n

Safety Division Director Karin Mongeon says, \u201cParents can influence driving behavior even before their child gets behind the wheel.\u201d \u00a0Always wearing your seat belt, following posted speed limits and driving sober and distraction-free teaches your kids that taking personal responsibility when driving is a priority.\u201d<\/p>\n

Parents should become familiar with North Dakota\u2019s\u00a0graduated driver licensing restrictions<\/a>\u00a0including night driving restrictions. Self-reported surveys show that teens with parents who set and enforce firm rules for driving typically engage in less risky driving behaviors and are involved in fewer crashes. By knowing and enforcing the laws, parents will help promote personal responsibility for their teens and the teens around them.<\/p>\n

\"\"Bismarck\u00a0 (CSi) \u2013 Gov. Doug Burgum and the North Dakota Department of Commerce Thursday announced that the North Dakota Development Fund has approved initial support for Cerilon Inc. to develop a major gas-to-liquids (GTL) complex in North Dakota, with the initial phase estimated at $2.8 billion.<\/p>\n

The Development Fund Board Thursday approved $3 million in initial developmental capital to Cerilon GTL Inc., a subsidiary of Calgary, Albert-based Cerilon Inc., for the GTL complex, with further financial support anticipated.
\nWith this support, Cerilon GTL will proceed with the remaining development in anticipation of construction of the $2.8 billion Phase 1 GTL facility in Williams County. The GTL project supports state leadership\u2019s strategy to diversify the energy industry and support clean, environmentally responsible energy development.<\/p>\n

Burgum said, \u201cThe global investment community and markets are demanding low carbon energy. North Dakota is well-positioned to be a global leader and coveted location for businesses who are looking to expand and respond to the many factors that are currently shaping the future of energy.\u201d<\/p>\n

The primary outputs of the Phase 1 GTL facility will consist of 24,000 barrels per day of ultra-low sulfur diesel and other specialty products. All products are in high demand, and the operations will support the growth of natural gas production in North Dakota while also assisting in meeting the governor\u2019s challenge to make North Dakota carbon neutral by 2030 through innovation over regulation.<\/p>\n

Nico Duursema, Cerilon Inc. Chairman\u00a0 said, \u201cOur paramount goal is to deliver sustainable, long-term value to our stakeholders, community, and the environment. The state-of-the-art GTL facility will be the lowest carbon footprint facility of its kind in the world.”<\/p>\n

The plant will be based in Trenton, North Dakota, and following the necessary development work, construction will commence in early 2023. The location will allow rail and pipeline access and offers carbon sequestration opportunities. Cerilon GTL anticipates the establishment of additional phases and other facilities as part of its vision for the complex.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Cerilon GTL complex has the potential to be one of the largest economic expansion projects in the history of North Dakota,\u201d Commerce Commissioner James Leiman said. \u201cGTL facilities support the oil industry while reducing environmental impacts. The Williams County facility will be one of many expansions that make North Dakota a leader in carbon neutrality.\u201d
\nThe North Dakota Development Fund was created in 1991 as an economic development tool. It provides flexible funding through debt and equity investments for new or expanding North Dakota primary sector businesses.

\"\"GRAND FORKS, N.D. \u2013 Senator John Hoeven stressed to U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Secretary Jennifer Granholm the critical role that carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies will play in ensuring the nation remains energy secure. The senator made the remarks during a meeting at the University of North Dakota\u2019s Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC), which he hosted along with Governor Doug Burgum.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hoeven highlighted that the International Energy Agency (IEA) has called CCUS the most important energy technology that exists today. The senator further outlined how North Dakota has been leading efforts for more than a decade to crack the code on CCUS, which will enable the U.S. to continue leveraging its oil, gas and coal resources to ensure Americans have access to reliable and affordable energy.
