It is my recollection/understanding that despite the "settlement" the pick was cleared with OSHA and in fact was being witnessed by them and filmed because it was one of the largest picks of its kind at the time. Having lived in Lawrinson, I can assure you that 20-25 mph winds are commonplace there. Needless to say, there is no way they will be cavalier with this, and it is VERY unlikely they will do it with the building in use during a season... any season. [/QUOTE]
