DICKINSON, N.D. (AP) — Officials are cutting the ribbon on another large so-called man camp in the western North Dakota oil patch.

Target Logistics on Thursday afternoon is holding a grand opening for the Dunn County Lodge. The Minot Daily News reports (http://bit.ly/zKycs5) that the temporary worker housing facility about eight miles north of Dickinson will accommodate 600 oil and gas workers.

Company CEO Brian Lash says Target Logistics has opened eight compounds with more than 3,700 beds in the Bakken region since 2010, and several more are planned.
