The deal will allow the firm to haul heavy 60,000 pound truck loads of 36 inch steel pipe through and along the southwest corner of the county into Lincoln County to expand oil transfer routes to the nation’s pipeline nexus of Cushing Okla.

You know the lawyers negotiated this because they'll have to go back to court to decide what the damages are. And re: wind I found this link. http://www.wind-watch.org/faq-size.php. A basic turbine hub is 56 tons. If that is transported in one piece it is almost twice a truck of pipe. I really hope a wind tower is transported in separate pieces. The blades are lighter than the hub, and the load is more spread out.
