North Dakota Department of Health - Air Quality Division Issues

Draft Permit to Construct for the Davis Refinery

BELFIELD, North Dakota (Tuesday, December 5^th, 2017) – Meridian Energy Group, Inc., the leading developer of innovative and environmentally-compliant oil refining facilities, announced today that the North Dakota Department of Health (“NDDoH”) – Air Quality Division has issued, for public comment, its Draft Permit to Construct for the Davis Refinery. This Draft Permit is the last step toward an award of a Permit to Construct (“PTC”) by the NDDoH, and is based on the thorough review of the Davis Refinery application documents, engineering designs, and related equipment specifications, by the NDDoH.

Issuance of the draft PTC begins a 45-day public comment period, during which NDDoH will receive and consider comments and analysis from interested parties and the public. A public meeting will be scheduled within the 45-day period by the Air Quality Division of the NDDoH to facilitate participation in the process. Both during and upon conclusion of the comment period, the NDDoH will review and address all relevant input received, and then move forward with issuance of the final PTC. Meridian is hopeful that the issuance of the final PTC will take place in time to complete site grading and other work in 2017, and to launch fabrication of the refinery components by the end of the year.

Meridian’s PTC application as a Synthetic Minor Source was filed in October 2016, and amended in April 2017, to further reduce emission results for the Davis Refinery. The draft PTC issued by the NDDoH is in accordance with all applicable Synthetic Minor Source requirements. This marks the first time that a refinery of this size and complexity has been reviewed and approved (on a draft basis) as a Synthetic Minor Source. Meridian believes this demonstrates that the application documents, and the extensive underlying engineering effort, supports its contention that the Davis Refinery will be able to attain the Lowest Achievable Emission Rates (“LAER”) possible.

Meridian CEO William Prentice on the Issued Draft Permit, “We are extremely proud to have achieved this milestone in the permitting process. Publication of this Draft Permit acknowledges the tireless work performed by the entire team – Meridian, SEH, Vepica, ZIA and many others, and the efforts of the NDDoH staff. We continued to push the limits of technical innovation throughout this process, and never stopped seeking opportunities to make the Davis Refinery as clean as it could possibly be.”

Prentice then added on the review process and path ahead. “We fully appreciate the thorough and meticulous review performed by the NDDoH, which held us accountable at every phase of the review process. We look forward to the next step in the process as administered by NDDoH, since it will allow the community and interested parties to learn how Meridian’s design efforts, which included modifications made as a result of the rigorous review by the Department of Health, have ensured that the Davis Refinery will operate in full compliance with the law and in a manner that is responsive to the concerns of the local community. The Davis Refinery will indeed be the cleanest refinery on the planet when completed.”

Andreina Pena, Environmental Manager at Vepica USA on the overall permit to construct process, “From the beginning, Meridian focused the engineering for the Davis Refinery on demonstrating that the sustainable development of a project of this magnitude is feasible near the source of the feedstock, in the heart of the Bakken.  Meridian firmly believes that doing what is environmentally responsible does not need to be mandated by regulatory requirements, and that environmental and commercial viability are not mutually exclusive.  Furthermore, the selection of the proper control technology, whether or not mandated by current regulations, makes sense from an operations, community, environmental and investor point of view.  With the issuance of a Draft Permit to Construct, the NDDoH has further validated that current, proven control technologies, when sensibly implemented, can ensure a project of this scope can be classified as a synthetic minor source.”

Eddie Martinez, CEO Zia Engineering & Environmental Consultants LLC. on the review process, “This is a major step towards issuance of the Permit to Construct for the proposed project.  With this action, the NDDoH is indicating that it is finished with the initial review of the application documents, has found the documents to be administratively complete and accurate and that they intend to proceed with consideration of permit issuance.  This culminates more than a year of effort in design, detailed analysis and modeling of the facility to get to this point, and this establishes a new benchmark in the industry related to how a project of this nature can be compatible and environmentally responsible.”

Martinez added. “We are excited to take this step and look forward to proceeding with the public and outside agency comment process.  We also wish to compliment the NDDoH in working proactively with Meridian and our staff throughout the review process.  Based on our work on projects of similar magnitude, we can say that the Department’s review has been extremely thorough to this point, and that NDDoH has been very professional in its request for follow up data and questions.  We are confident that the overall process will very soon result in the formal issuance of the Permit to Construct and the start of actual facility construction.

Liberty Tax Guide Helps Workers Understand Tax Implications of Gig Economy Work

Many are unaware of taxes and deductions for independent contractors

Virginia Beach, VA (January 30, 2018) – Liberty Tax, Inc. (NASDAQ: TAX)

The gig economy in America is thriving with independent contractors signing on daily to work for online platforms, such as Uber and OrderUp. Unfortunately, many gig workers fail to realize their responsibilities as taxpayers – a lack of knowledge that could cost them greatly down the road. In an effort to help gig economy workers understand the tax implications of their work, Liberty Tax has produced a guide of common federal tax questions and answers that many gig workers face.

Gig economy workers need tax help.

• Gig economy workers are among those the IRS has encouraged to pay close attention to rules regarding estimated tax payments. The number of taxpayers assessed an estimated tax penalty jumped about 40 percent from 7.2 million in 2010 to 10 million in 2015, according to the IRS.
• Failing to report payment received for work performed as an independent contractor was cited as the No. 1 reason taxpayers receive an IRS notice for incorrect tax calculations, in a survey by the National Association of Enrolled Agents.
• A survey by the Kogod Tax Policy Center at American University found that “43 percent of respondents who earned money in the gig economy in 2015 were unaware of how much they would owe in taxes and did not set aside money for taxes on that income.”

“Our goal with this guide is to provide important information to those participating in the gig economy,” said Ed Brunot, CEO of Liberty Tax. “We know people want to meet their tax obligations, but if they’re unaware of their responsibilities, that can create problems.”

The guide, “11 Tax Questions Every Gig Worker Should Ask,” covers issues such as federal tax deductions and estimated tax payments. It is casual, easy-to-read, and informative. It answers questions gig workers may have or may not know they should have, including:

• Do I have to pay taxes if I do not receive tax paperwork from an online platform?

Many gig workers will not receive tax forms because the online platforms that do not pay in cash or check are not required to provide a 1099-K unless a gig worker has 200 transactions or earns $20,000. That doesn’t mean the income isn’t taxable. In reality, self-employed individuals whose net earnings are $400 or more are required to file a federal tax return.

Liberty Tax will provide the guide free of charge to gig workers, online platforms and others interested in tax issues related to gig work.

Liberty Tax invites gig workers to visit their nearest Liberty Tax office for help in preparing their 2017 income tax returns.

About Liberty Tax, Inc.

Founded in 1997, Liberty Tax, Inc. (NASDAQ: TAX) is the parent company of Liberty Tax Service. In the U.S. and Canada, last year, Liberty Tax prepared over two million individual income tax returns in more than 4,000 offices and online. Liberty Tax’s online services are available through eSmart Tax, Liberty Online and DIY Tax, and are all backed by the tax professionals at Liberty Tax locations and its nationwide network of seasonal tax preparers. Liberty Tax also supports local communities with fundraising endeavors and contributes as a national sponsor to many charitable causes.

Liberty Tax Rolls Out Updates to Popular Taxpayer Calculators

Free online tools are faster and easier to use

Virginia Beach, VA (February 7, 2018) – Liberty Tax, Inc. (NASDAQ: TAX)

Liberty Tax, a leading tax preparation company, is always moving forward, developing new tools for taxpayers and improving popular features that help taxpayers plan and better understand their tax situations. This tax season is no exception. Liberty Tax will showcase updates to two powerful online tools that deliver the advanced technology and ease-of-use that taxpayers have come to expect from the brand that takes the stress out of tax time.

Millions of taxpayers already choose these tools to help them plan and to evaluate their tax situations before they visit their tax preparer. For the 2018 tax season, taxpayers will find these advancements to their favorite tools:

Tax calculator: Liberty Tax already had a state-of-the-art online tax calculator available. Our updated tax calculator is faster and more concise. More importantly, the tax calculator has the ability to store information – if the taxpayer chooses – which can be brought to a local Liberty Tax office, when the taxpayer files his or her taxes.

Mileage calculator: For years Liberty Tax has offered an extremely popular and easy-to-use mileage log that could be printed and filled in manually. Our new mileage calculator takes mileage tracking to a new level. The new mileage calculator is:

• It allows users to enter miles for a business then receive automatic deduction calculations based on the IRS mileage rate.
• Forward-looking. Users can instantly estimate the deduction for future business trips for budgeting purposes.
• Users can choose to store mileage information, which is securely emailed to them, so they can bring it into a Liberty Tax office when they file their taxes.

The tools and other resources at LibertyTax.com are free and available to all taxpayers. They are an invaluable resource and can help taxpayers when it comes to compiling tax information to bring to the tax professionals they know and trust, like those at Liberty Tax.

Liberty Tax offices are friendly and welcoming, and taxpayers can be comforted in knowing that at Liberty Tax offices will provide the most accurate tax return — guaranteed.

TallGrass President gives insight to the key to a successful business, a successful you

Jennifer Fleming, President of TallGrass Public Relations, joined The Female Red Zone’s Maribeth Kuzmeski on C-Suite Radio Monday, Jan. 4^th.

Sioux Falls, SD (January 7^th, 2016) —TallGrass Public Relations’ very own Jennifer Fleming was featured on The Female Red Zone, hosted by Maribeth Kuzmeski, a show featured on C-Suite Radio.

Fleming, a former IT professional, media insider, seasoned communicator, and head of TallGrass PR, gave advice on successful interviews to how to be successful on your own.

Her first piece of advice, and most simple was to practice speaking to anyone and anything for practice. One thing Kuzmeski mentioned was the idea that the media is constant and one has to be prepared, Fleming’s advice calls for a sort of, ‘on your toes’ insight to this.

Another was to think about how you project yourself to the media, commenting on posture and facial expressions are something to take seriously in an interview. The reason behind this, according to Fleming, is the overall perception the audience will have watching an interview.

She then moved on to advice for a successful you. With her diverse background, Fleming came to where she is today with work ethic and the skills set needed. She also embraced change, something she said is hard to do, but needed in order to be successful.

Fleming ended the interview with a lasting piece of advice, to be your own cheerleader, create goals for yourself, and to work hard to achieve them for your own success.
