Dick Edgar said western North Dakota oil development has kept his Grand Forks concrete plant in operation and offers millions of dollars in opportunities for other companies, if only they can find a way in. “My plant in Grand Forks right now would be shut down if it wasn’t for the Bakken,” said Edgar, the business development director for Wells Concrete in Grand Forks, referring to the Bakken oil play, the main driver of petroleum production in North Dakota.
