Corridor case studies

A numbered series. Each one is a record of what is on file for a single project in this corridor — council minutes, adopted ordinances, recorded instruments, filings, registrations and published datasets. Every figure is sourced or explicitly marked NOT FOUND.

Puerto Verde and Green Eagle: five gates, none cleared

The Presidential Permit held by Maverick County, the Surface Transportation Board authorisation conditioned on Union Pacific, the non-binding MOU, and the five gates none of which has been cleared.

What these are, and what they are not

These are studies of instruments and calendars — what was obtained, from whom, and how long it took. They do not assess anyone's competence, motives or judgment, and no such assessment should be read into them. Where a figure could not be substantiated it is recorded as NOT FOUND rather than estimated.
