What Happened?

Category: ComplianceIssue: Non-compliance

Construction was held up because the government couldn't get the right of way—permission to use the land. In one district, 22 projects were delayed for this reason, and a telephone pole blocked one project. In another area, property owners changed their minds, causing legal disputes.
