Market Evaluation

• Gas and oil pipelines from Canada's western oilfields pass through the United States south of Lake Superior and cross back into Canada at Sarnia
• The St. Clair River and Lake Huron provide processing and cooling water of desired quality and temperatures in large quantities
• Economical transportation by water is provided by the St. Lawrence Seaway system
• Complementary industries are attracted because of supplies of industrial products used by manufacturing operations
• Salt beds lying between 1500 and 2700 feet below the surface are a source of chemicals for major industries. Abandoned mines provide economical storage for industrial chemicals and gases.
