Diageo Construction Is on Schedule

The Source is reporting:

Construction is moving on schedule and this fall St. Croix will see massive concrete slabs poured and walls built at the Diageo Captain Morgan Rum distillery, a company official said Thursday.

Speaking to Rotary of St. Croix at its weekly speaker luncheon, Dan Kirby, Diageo U.S. Virgin Islands vice president of supply, provided new details of the construction schedule while emphasizing the environmentally friendly features of the plant and Diageo's success at hiring mostly local workers to build the plant.

This seems to be a great story for the VI and especially St. Croix. Jobs, tax revenues - has there been any local downside reported on this project?
