After a long fight, the oil companies have called off the heavy haul. Eugene-based Western Environmental Law Center gave legal support to the advocacy group All Against the Haul, one of many organizations opposed to the transport of oversized modules from the Port of Lewiston in Idaho to the tar sands in Canada.

Highway 12 has been the point of contention and ultimately a road to success in the struggle.
