Bristol C&M announces the commencement of a complete survey for Hallam.

Bristol Bay Station recently announced, at the turn of the new year, that a survey operation will compete sometime within this quarter of the Pennsylvania moon Hallam. While the location has long been home to Camp Lakewood, a limited mining endeavor by Bristol C&M, the move comes with the recent chartering of a Bustard-class liner. Executives at Bristol Bay say that the liner is expected to be in Pennsylvania within the month, where it will stay for the foreseeable future.

As uncertainty looms with both the Galileo platinum market and the Deuterium export market on which a large portion of the Pennsylvania economy is based, many experts indicating a strong likelihood of further deteriorations between the Liberty and Kusari governments over the Galileo issue. Denver-based expert Randolph Beire said in a recent interview on the issue, “Unless either side appoints a diplomat interested in solving this question peacefully, it is unlikely that there will be any repair of relations soon.” Calls from the Rheinland administration, meanwhile, have not been heeded by its neighbors.

In related news, analysts report growing confidence in the future of Bristol C&M, despite possible issues with Galileo.
